Thank you so much for all of the well wishes this week! I woke up this morning feeling much better, with no fever, and much less sniffly. Hopefully I can fully recover over the weekend, especially since I have a lot of crafty things planned...
- I found some cotton yarn in pretty, spring colors at Michaels this afternoon and I can't wait to use it! I'm a little sad to admit that winter is over though..
- While I was at Michaels, I also found the correct circular needles for my fawn-cho! I'm so excited to get started. My pretty yarn has been taunting me all week...
- I need to finish up adding border to the Ello Lovey prints. It is delicate work, but I really love the result.
- I had a silent goal for February to do a picture an hour post again and I just never did it! I'm going to try it again tomorrow and maybe throw a few Instax shots in too.
- In hopes that I continue to get better over the weekend, I will drink lots of liquids and munch on the universal sick person food, Saltine crackers. ;)
- My main reason for wanting to get over this cold is so I can see all of my Etsy Dallas friends at our first team meeting tomorrow afternoon! I can't wait to see my old buddies and meet the new members!
That's about it. Aside from the Etsy Dallas meeting, I'm happy that most of these activities can be completed on the couch. I really need to rest up so I can knock out my midterm exams next week. Wait...what? Midterms already? Yeah...graduation is so soon.
So, what are you up to these weekend? Please share!
So far I'm just catching up on blogs and sniffling a lot - what more appropriate way to end our summer by catching a cold! :(
ReplyDeleteOh I'm so sorry! :( This sniffling business is no fun. I hope you have a speedy recovery!
DeleteLove the cotton! I'm making myself something with those colors this weekend too, starting at least :) I'm also finishing up a doily blanket
ReplyDeleteA doily blanket sounds lovely! Enjoy your weekend!
DeleteWhat lovely new yarn! Sounds like you should be feeling better in no time.
ReplyDeleteSean and I are hoping to go out for our belated birthday dinner this weekend while my parents watch the kids. It's a rare occasion for us to get out on a date, so we're pretty excited!
Ooh date night! Have fun Faith! :)
DeleteI love the way you lay things out for these posts. I hope you feel better!
ReplyDeleteRandom question: how do you get a good foundation chain when you crochet? I've been trying to start a pattern all day and I just can't get it right. Any advice? Thanks!
Thank you Tricia! :)
DeleteHmm. Do you mean the first chains when you start a pattern? I try to start my chains loose so I can easily work the first row of the pattern into them. I'm not sure if this is what you are asking though. Let me know if I didn't answer your question!
I'm going to see a play on Broadway tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds great! Which one?
DeleteCan't wait to see how that yarn knits up!
ReplyDeleteAg Meredith, please tell us technophobes how you do those photos...you, with the skeins of wall piling up in you hand, twirling around etc! So cool.
Me too!
DeleteThank you! Gifs are so fun/addicting. Haha! When I wanted to make a gif I just googled "how to make a gif" and found a bunch of great tutorials! They can explain it much better than I can!
I just finished midterms! Very excited about that. This weekend I'll just be working, but then I get to go home for the first time since Christmas! I'm already hungry for my mom's food. I'm glad you're starting to feel better, also chicken noodle really does help! Have fun at the Dallas meeting :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely weekend, glad you're feeling better! And phew, you found the right needles! I hate when I want to get started on a project and realise there some key part missing that I have to track down >:(
ReplyDeleteUgh I have a TON of house work to do if I can ever tear myself away from catching up on blogs! haha then hopefully tomorrow I'm going to knock out some of those Earl Grey Muffins you posted last week :D
ReplyDeleteJOY!
Glad your feeling better :)

That lovely yarn looks so soft and delicate. It makes me want to learn how to knit! I hope you had a wonderful weekend. xx
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun weekend!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun colors! Sounds like the perfect weekend to me. Still getting better myself and am just enjoying finishing up knitting something for my hubby. He's working all weekend, so I won't be doing much other than couch surfing and knitting. Not a totally horrible weekend. :)
ReplyDeleteIt seems everyone is feeling under the weather as of late, myself included. Glad you're feeling better though. Oh, I must say though, I love reading your blog...it's so bright and cheery and it definitely makes a sick in bed a bit brighter.
ReplyDeleteI love knitting! Sometimes, like right now, I just want to scream that from the rooftops. I hope you are having a good time knitting your fawncho, I am almost finished with the sweater I'm working and I can't wait to wear it.
ReplyDeleteHope your weekend was great and you're feeling better! :) My midterms were a few weeks ago, so there's only like 6 weeks of something crazy of class left - what?! Feels crazy...the year just flew by!!
