Joelene alerted me that the Winter Knitty is up. As if I needed more of a reason to knit!

We had quite the busy weekend. Most of it was spent at Target. We’ve been wanting to do something new with our dresser. I took a picture of it, but I’m too embarrassed to show the internet. Just believe me when I say it was bad.

We decided that we wanted to go to some kind of shelving unit, instead of a dresser. This is mostly because Jim had five hundred billion t-shirts. Which often results in the desired t-shirt being WAY at the bottom of the drawer, leading to his tearing through the dresser drawer and causing me to wonder why I even bother to fold said t-shirts. With our new shelving unit, he can see every one of his five hundred billion t-shirts and leave everything nice and neat (in theory anyway.)

Notice the new TV. We argued for a week about whether we needed a new TV. Jim, of course was convinced that we needed a 27″ television for the bedroom and I was happy to keep the old (very old) one we had. We finally compromised on the 20″ Target special. Now, of course, Jim feels like we need a surround system. For the BEDROOM. I think not.

On to more important matters. Knitting. I’ve finished my brown with gold flecks scarf.

I also made my first mitten. I’m quite proud of myself. It was actually much easier than I anticipated. The pattern is Super Mittens from Weekend Knitting.

These mittens will match my tan, seafoam and brown scarf.
