FO: Knotted gloves and other things.

1. I finished the 2nd project for my Camp Loopy challenge. Ravelry Link.   I had fun with the project, I've not done a lot of cable work so this was a nice introduction. The yarn is wonderfully sparkly, but you cannot tell in the pictures!

Next is onto project three and it is another shawl, but with a lot more yardage.  The challenge is to use over 800 yards of yarn.  Good thing I'll have plenty of knitting time on the plane.

2.  Michael Buble has never been on my ipod, or in my music scene, but I ended up going to his concert a couple of evenings ago and I LOVED it.  I knew I'd like the music, I love big band and Sinatra and all that, but he was so stinking funny.  I don't think I've ever laughed so hard at a music concert.  I would definitely pay to see him again.  His opening act was Naturally 7, a group of 7 guys that do not use any instruments, only their voices and the music they create is phenomenal.  Seriously, check them out.

3.  Soon I'll be headed to Alaska and I'm hoping to get some wonderful pictures while I'm up there to share.  If I get some good ones I want to blow them up and use them to decorate my living room and/or bedroom.  Plus I get to see one of my most wonderfulest friends while I'm there. Win-win I say.
