So now that I'm not knitting for a book anymore, I get to knit for pure fun again! Whee!

I started by casting on for those Terminator arm warmers I fell in love with. I'm using Vickie Howell's Rock yarn. Gwen and Joan are the colors!




I'm also eyeballing the other patterns I want to do. I am working on a super secret pattern for my friend Callies b-day. So no pics of that until next week!

In the meantime, I want to take up some stitching, just so I can make this:




It's from the book, "Not your Momma's Stitching" Super cute stuff in there.

I'm also DYING to make some of the things from Charmed Knits. I've been eyeballing this book forever!
I think this will be the first project:



They look so cute and comfy. Must cast those suckers on! I've got to find the yarn first though. I may just have to order it. I am so dissapointed by the fact that there are no yarn stores around me. The nearest two are both 30 minutes away, each in an opposite direction. So if I want Brown Sheep yarn, it's 30 minutes south, if I want Cascade, it's 30 minutes east! If only we had twice the room here, I swear I would convert half the shop into a yarn store!
