Here is my crafty corner as of now (thankfully I have a table coming in a couple of weeks):
As you may have guessed, I have not really been doing a lot of knitting or spinning through this whole process, but that is not the only reason I'm woefully behind on my Ravellenic Games projects. The main reason is that the most wonderful guy has come into my life and I've been gladly spending most of my free time with him.
Although I'm embarrassed to show you the slow progress I have made, here goes:

hi Pumpkin!
ReplyDeleteI've spent the last couple of days reading through the archives of your wonderful blog and I'm happy that I've found it! :)
Especially the dying experiments with easter egg-dye was awesome - this is truly something even I feel brave enough to do ... :)
I'm glad to read that your move went well! And also, that you're in love ... Is there something better in life? ;-)
All the best!
Julia
Congrats on your first apartment. I can't wait to have my own place XD And a great guy always trumps yarny stuff. So don't worry about it. The knitting goddeses will understand lol
ReplyDeleteSo very excited and happy for you! So many wonderful things happening in your life - enjoy- knitting and spinning will be there when you get to it!
ReplyDeletePumpkin! Great news all around. To reiterate your comments to me I shall quote you, "I think we all want to make sure that The Boy understands and supports your fiber endeavors, because it IS important (hooray!)." So is he treating your crafting well?
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for you that the move went well and that you enjoyed your first day of graduate school too.
ReplyDeleteAnd nevermind on the slow progress of your WIP's, Mr Wonderful is MUCH MUCH more important xxx
a new man, congrats. Do we expect to see some manly projects on your needles shortly? Hope your new apartment, course and everything goes wonderfully for you.
ReplyDeleteCompletely understand about what you call a lack of progress (it looks like progress to me!). A move, school and a new guy are a lot in a short time. Make sure he treats you well!
ReplyDeleteYou've moved successfully AND you found back all your WIPs! CONGRATULATIONS!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the move, grad school, and the new friend! I have none of those excuses and you're still making better progress than I am. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch an exciting new beginning! So glad to hear it all is going so well!
ReplyDeleteI also met someone recently and it's quite exciting because I have been by myself for quite a while (waiting for someone I really like!) Thankfully (!) he is out of town for a couple of days so I took this opportunity to work intensively on my Ravellenics project! I'm so glad to hear that all is going well with your move and grad school! Go go go!
ReplyDeleteI think you've been quite productive considering your move and the guy. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteA table dedicated to crafts is the most wonderful thing to have. I don't know about you, but a desk is never big enough to hold all my craft stuff and be a work space.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the move went well.
I hope I am lucky like you with the guy thing very soon! And WOW, I didn't realize you guys already started school. Hope it is going well. :D
ReplyDeleteHow exciting for you! I'm so pleased that your move was smooth. I hope that this year brings you everything you're hoping for. So many firsts! Enjoy everything and everyday, because the little moments are the ones that mean the most!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad your move went great! Also about the boy, that is always super exciting! It sounds like everything is kind of falling into place and those are always the best times! Progress is still progress and it is all looking so great!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're making pretty darn good progress to me!! Lots of new and exciting adventures in front of you....so happy to hear it!!!
ReplyDeletethe colour of that gemini is goregous!
ReplyDeleteohh a new man! always a good reason to do less of the crafty stuff! glad to hear your move went well!
ReplyDeleteYou've created a great deal! I'm glad your move went well. If you ever want to visit my high school Fiber Arts Club as a visiting artist, please let me know. I'd love to have a young person talk to the students--and maybe demonstrate some spinning (or some other skill). I know you're about an hour and a half away, but maybe the club could reimburse your travel expenses. I have students in the club until May, so there's plenty of time. Just thought I'd ask you now, so you can think about it . . .
ReplyDeleteHooray, you had a great start to your new adventure and stage in life. I've been a slug also.
ReplyDeleteYay! Sounds like a great new start. Good luck with grad school and everything else :)
ReplyDeleteI'm behind on my project as well. So glad to hear the move went well, I've been so mia, I hope to catch up with you soon and that you're doing well!
ReplyDeleteWow! This post is packed with exciting news :-)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your first apartment, new friend and knitting. Life is full of surprises and lessons. Enjoy every minute, even the difficult times as these are lessons to be learned.
Congrats on all that is new, Ivy!
ReplyDeleteWhat an exciting time in your life.
