Oh, gods, I suddenly want to drop the classics stuff and embrace Norse mythology. I could switch one class out, but I already bought the books! But Norse mythology! Which is apparently all over the Chronicles (as well as the Greek mythology!)! And I am really intrigued by some things! Like the Norse influence on British mythology and folklore! OH DEAR.*

Also I now really want to knit this blanket (Ravelry link).

*On the bright side, maybe that could be my senior thesis? Only I wanted more classics in my senior thesis!

Most of the time yarn is also listed with plies as well as by weight, which appears to be a little subjective based on the seller.

Right now I am knitting this in Malabrigo Sock "Persia, which is a green and bronze-ish colorway. It's pretty! I hope I don't run out of yarn!

My well-behaved women earrings are dangly -- they're slightly curved strips of silver, and one has "well-behaved women" etched onto it, and the other one has "rarely make history." I LOVE THEM.

Oooh, pretty. (Oooh! I have found you on Ravelry!)

Oh, those sound gorgeous!

It's lots of fun! I like lace, I have found. (And yes, I bought more yarn! Two skeins, one of Gaia and one of a sport-weight gray-purple called Whisper.)

I will try and take pictures! As I have been meaning to since I got them. Last December.

I would like to try lace. *deep breaths* Less than a fortnight until payday, and then I will go shopping! Actually, I might buy the pattern before that. If I buy it soon enough, I can get my parents to print it out and bring it up for me...

Please do! Last December caulkhead and I went to the South Bank Christmas Market, and I bought earrings, and a watch on a chain that I need to get fixed. (I dropped it, and now it won't shut.)

Traveling Woman is a good beginning lace project, if you happen to be into shawls. And free! (Note to self: put batteries in camera. Photograph Traveling Woman. And earrings.)

I have added it to my queue!
