I shaved my legs!

Why does that deserve to be a title? I hadn't shaved my legs since this fall. In my warped mind I was sure it was going to keep my legs warmer. Why did I change my mind? I looked at my legs. I can go for days without looking at myself. I guess I avoided my legs. They are ALL the way down there, afterall. I couldn't handle how different. They looked like boy legs. So today they are sort of shaven. They are not clean shaven because I just didn't care that much, more like stripes of shaven offset by stripes of hairiness. haha so I guess its not really any better, but I'll be warm, right?

Here you can see I've been spinning. All day yesterday, ignoring my knitting WIPS, I was knitting. Today the wheel is sitting across the room, forlorn and alone so I can get some kntting done. I hate calling her "the wheel" I need to come up with a name for her. Suggestions?

So I provided a closeup not so you can see that I'm not perfect, but so you can see how pretty the colors are. The blue green is a roving I bought when I had no inspiration, the red orange is tequila sunrise dyed with koolaid. I have 2 more rovings that I dyed. Field of Berrries and Sunny Autumn.

I have another that I dyed but its hanging and drying at the moment. I ordered more dyes last night but I'm almost out of roving. And certainly running low on the fiber funds. Yet another reason to knit for a while. So here is that opal sock. The leg looks all screwy until you put a leg or an arm in it as I showed in my last post.

I've been working on the baby cardigan toobut you can't really see the progress. I'm close to putting the sleeves on holders and joining the sides up but my hands are aching when I knit this. I hate Red Heart. Its cheap and this one looks good but its so much harder to work with than wool or even a "good" acrylic. I'll persevere and I'll get it done if it ties my little fingers in knots.
