what a progressive month it has been!

April has been so progressive month! .I've managed to curb my spending habits (save it for the big city baby!), started a hat I've been commissioned for for a raffle, finished some of those lingering projects (call it spring cleaning) and as of now finished school for the summer months! yay! Now I'm on the job search and have decided to knit until my hearts content... or at least until it gets too hot to play with thick wool.

However, it all has to remain on hold until I shake this nasty cold/allergy. 'Tis the season to be congested and so knitting will be all that I do for a little while. I'm currently trying to finish up my Kimono dress, which is taking longer than anticipated considering its made of swatches. also I've been working on a colourful little paperback sleeve to keep pages from getting bent. I plan on using this a lot on my long sabbatical from school.
So, its back to the needles and leftover turkey made into soups and sandwiches for me for the next little while, but not before picking up some much needed noro, gingerale and tissues.
Happy Knitting! *cough cough*
