February Lady Sweater - Ravelympics 2008

I finally got the Dream in Color Classy photographed:

It's a hard color to photograph - deep purples and reds, with black layered in for good measure. I bought six skeins because I am absolutely terrified of running out of yarn; Sarah may end up with another February Baby Sweater if there is enough left over. Although, would that be dorky? If we have matching sweaters? I seem to recall making fun of mother/daughter sets like that in a store recently...but those weren't handmade, so it doesn't count. I've been on a tear lately, wanting to start new projects - hence, this happened:

Nope, it's not just you - the picture is a bit blurry. Those would be the Crosshatch Lace pattern from More Senstational Knitted Socks! by Charlene Schurch, and the yarn is Knit Picks Essential Kettle Dyed in Wine.

As I draw closer to the end of the summer semester, I find myself losing steam in my classes. I remember this happening when I went through college the first time around; I set out with the best of intentions, studying diligently and making every effort to get that A that I so desperately want, but by the end...I find myself calculating just how little work I could do and still pull a B. I'm still shooting for that A, trust me, but it's crazy busy trying to keep track of two kids and school at the same time. No excuses, however; please, feel free to kick me in the ass if you pass me in the hallway.

Not really. You might lose a leg.
