monday monkey works for the weekend, sir
I FINISHED IT, WOOOO! The paper that was due on Wednesday was ultimately finished on Sunday, and to celebrate I've done nothing but knit. And dumpster furniture.
I'm not sure who this is for yet. I really just wanted to make another one.
This is my Mother's Day gift for my mum. I think she'll like it. The mug was like $3 and I used scrap yarn to make the cozy. Easy peasy.
Another cozy, this one for my friend Steph's birthday. I love the big button. Again, the cup was $3 and the yarn was leftovers from a previous project.
As for the furniture acquisition: it's May, so many student-types move during the beginning of the month. As the majority of my apartment building is BGSU students (myself included) there are often times when people ditch furniture when moving. And then I pounce! Check out this bad-boy:
The low arms and wide seat make it a perfect knitting chair. I'm so excited. And the beauty of it being dumpstered is that when I move in August, I can just dump it if I don't have room! Some other lucky soul can have a chair. If you're wondering, I did go through and clean it up with upholstery cleaner and vacuumed the crap out of it. Literally and/or figuratively.
Tomorrow I resume thesis writing. My goal is to have it written in the next three weeks. I think I can do it!
