Where Have I Been?!?

It's been over a month since my last post. When I focus more time on the website, I'll post more often. Until then, no biggie. As promised, my fingerless gloves, made out of that scrumptious cotton sweater. I used them in the bitter cold:


I used them in an attack against a vicious mountain lion:

And finally, I used them to do my best Vanna White demo in the kitchen:

So I've been away from the site for over a month. What have I been doing? Let me think...
One thing I worked on was the denim quilt that i've been slllooowwwly making for the king size bed I plan on having one day. I've gotten 270 denim circles cut, and I've gone through almost 3 dozen pairs of jeans. So far this project's cost me all of $3. Can't beat that! Below is a photo of the eight million circles, made of jeans of all different races:

And finally, I'm ashamed to admit this. I'm knitting. For the record, I am a hardcore crocheter. I find knitters to be pretentious and snobby when it comes to yarn. However, this winter I craved a scarf that was a bit more tightly woven than a crochet hook could do. And so, below is a pic of the scarf in its infant stage. As of now, it's almost 5 inches long. At the rate I'm going, the scarf should be ready for Winter 2011. No guarantees though. Behold the scarf:
Thankee!

The gloves look great! Have you been getting stuff (like the jeans) at the Sunshine Shop?
(If you need more denim, I bet I have a LOT of old jeans from the failed jean purse business.)
