I'M BACK!

So here I am!  Almost 2 years and finally I have rejoined cyberland.  I got a new laptop last weekend and decided it was time to get back to the blog!  So much has happened...I got a degree in Fashion Design and have been working in theatre doing costumes for the past year.  I love it.  The three main gigs I have had are The Atlanta Opera, The Alliance Theatre, and Georgia Shakespeare Theatre...I have gained so much from these jobs!  It is nice to have a degree but real world experience is priceless! Currently I am working on "Into The Woods" at the Alliance.  I love this musical!  It is very exciting to be a part of this production. 

HMMM...so what have I been knitting?  Just finished MUIR which I worked on for 3 years...yes that's right...3 years.  Life really got in the way of this one, but I never gave up and it is finished.  I will be giving it to my friend Nancy this week!  WOO HOO...pictures later.
What else....currently working on a baby sweater and hat for my sister's co-worker.  The pattern for the sweater is one of my favorites.  It is a seamless knit from the top down cardigan.
 For the most part since I got out of school I keep a small project going like socks or a scarf.  I started an entrelac scarf out of self striping sock yarn, and I love it but it has proved time consuming and I yearn for more, more, more....hopefully I will finish it one day.

I really should be designing more...I am heading to Washington DC for a break later this month and hope to get inspired to start designing more.

As you can tell I have no pictures of recent projects.  I need to get the camera out and snap some shots of what is on the needles.  I am easing back into the blog, so next post will hopefully have some pics!

It's good to be back. 

Knit on....
