I'm getting better at knitting while distracted, I think. Yesterday I successfully knit while receiving job hunting advice from a pastor, and today I knit in the backseat of pre-rush hour traffic. And, of course, knitting while role-playing last night, although it was one of those sessions where I had pretty much no idea what was going on anyway... But yeah, another five rows on the hat, and a few inches on the scarf. I'd post pictures of the hat so far if I had some. I need a camera.
Today's adventures led a few of us to United Noodles, an oriental grocery store in Minneapolis. What does this have to do with knitting, you ask? Chopstick shopping. I've come across several tutorials on these here vast interwebs for making chopsticks into knitting needles, so I thought I'd jump in and give it a shot. 100 round chopsticks for like, $3. Good deal. (Plus I got some Yan Yan out of the deal, mainly because it was cheaper than Pocky.)
The only problem is that I like to think I'm better at certain things than I actually am. In this case, decorative painting. Luckily, chopsticks are small enough that the extent of the painting that can be done is with like, toothpicks.
Oh, yes, not to mention that all my crafting stuff is packed away in a box somewhere. Wonderful. I need to move already.
