Stitch 'n' Bitch, now with 54% more bitching!

So, it was SnB night in Port Credit. I really needed it after the week I've had - already, and it was only Tuesday. And it was a lot of fun. My sister picked me up after my linguistics class and we headed down to Port Credit to just wander around, grab some food - ice cream from Scoops and a huge delicious burrito from Burrito Boys - and, of course, down to Linda's Craftique to have a poke through. I've been ogling the book Folk Shawls for the last little while, due to my new and unhealthy obsession with lace. She's also going to be getting in Son of Stitch 'n' Bitch, which I need for my husband's luchador mask. Goodbye first paycheque . . .

I'm about to cast on another project, which will be good for me. Right now my only ones on the go are my baby blanket and those evil demon slippers which I swear to God I will finish sometime that is not now. Oh, and that fun fur shawl that's hiding in the bottom of my yarn bag. Next up: Harry Potter scarf, for me, in Ravenclaw colours. Not going to go with the patterns in Charmed Knits because I don't particularly like it. Lots of stitches on small needles. I'm going to do fewer stitches on big needles, because I like the big squishy gauge better for scarves. Using Red Heart Soft Touch because I couldn't find a good bronze in any other yarn brand - I'm going with the book colours of blue and bronze rather than the movie colours of blue and silver.

I have three to four repeats to go on the Adamas shawl, and I'm just about at the end of the first ball of Bernat Baby Softee. I've already picked up a second ball so I won't have to wait, yay.

And still no pictures. Ubuntu refuses to acknowledge the drive, and because the driver is supposed to be included with this version, we can't find it elsewhere. Picking up an external cardreader today when I hit the mall in a couple of hours to see if that works. Then, hopefully, pictures!
