A new gig.

So I've been absent from the knitting world for quite a while.  It comes from a whole butt load of different reasons. 

Work is getting stressful.  New management will do that. I'm in school now, trying to move on to something better.  I'm hoping I'll be on to something else by this time next year. 

I've started to try to take better care of myself.  I'm only 27, and I already feel like I'm falling apart.  So thanks to a friend, I've started going to Bikram Yoga classes.  Ever heard of it?  It's this crazy hard yoga in a room heated to 105*. It sounds crazy, but it helps.  Nice way to heal my knees and back to the point that I can start adding in some regular exercise again.

Mostly though, it's just because my hands have been hurting too much. It seems like I can only knit for an hour before I start getting cramps.  I think I may need to go see someone about this.  It's getting to the point that I can't even type as much, and that's a big issue as that's what I do all day.

So, while not giving it up all together, I've moved on the other hobbies that take up less time and are easier on me.  Weaving mostly.

OMG LOOK AT THE PRETTY THING I MADE:

Northern Lights Scarf

OMG the prettys!

I was so surprised how something so simple could come out so amazing looking.  I use half a ball of Berroco Comfort Sock I had left over from a hat, and a ball and a half of Mini Mochi, and just did a basic weave. Total work time was MAYBE 6 hours (it was spread out over 2 days) and it's at least 6' long.  It's take weeks to knit something like that.

Anyho, that's what's been going on with me lately.  I'll try to post more stuff.
