Life got cra-zy...

So, I was very sick over Spring Break, and in the ensuing weeks, school became absolutely crazy, leaving me with very little quality knitting time. I did start on some stuff. I think I'm going to have my hands full this summer, with the WIP I have going. No more yarn til grad school!

I found out about a month ago a good friend of mine from long ago is having her first baby. I'm working on the Big Bad Baby Blanket from SNB as a gift for her. I'm using Caron Simply Soft for it.

My progress on Clover has stalled for a while. While I was sick over break, I had some issues that basically boiled down to me needing to loose a lot of weight. My mom pretty much discouraged me from continuing to put so much effort into a sweater that hopefully won't fit me in a year, so I'm sort of at an impasse - do I keep knitting on it (I'm only a few inches into a sleeve), or do I have the self-discipline to say, "I will lose the weight and knit this for myself as a final reward." I'm still debating it, and I figure until I decide what I want to do, forward progress on it isn't really a good idea.

Pictures tomorrow, camera batteries charge tonight!
