Bad Blogger! Bad!

Yep, it's been over two months since I last wrote.  I'm still fat, I'm still happy about it, I'm still gimpy, but now I have a hamstring in place of my ACL.  I hate catch-up posts. 

My surgery was a couple weeks ago, and I head back to work tomorrow.  I've been crafting a lot, though--not just these last two weeks, though.  I bought some sumptuous suri alpaca/merino blend yarn, in a lovely natural ivory colour.  I've not ever felt anything so soft.  And I've only spend more money on yarn once before--this yarn was $28/skein, and I bought three skeins.  It's what I love, and it was my present to myself.  I've been working on a thick cabled, bobbled infinity scarf.  Since the yarn itself is a single, non-tonal colour, rich textures work well.

I've also fallen down the rabbit hole that is Pinterest.  Seriously, it's the best thing ever.  If you are not on it, you need to be.  It's so inspirational, and I love seeing all the things my friends pin.  You can find me here.  You do have to request an invite, but I have extra invites and am willing to share if necessary.

Another awesome website is the Random Tutorial Generator.  I have found so many awesome tutorials through here.  The best part, too, is that it has reawakened my interest in sewing.  As soon as I can maneuver around the food pedal, I plan on getting back to sewing.  I have so much fabric and so many awesome sewing books, and I used to sew almost every day.  Now I crochet almost every day, but there is room for sewing.

I will be blogging on a regular basis again.  I will!
