I haven't been feeling very chatty or very crafty lately. I have been working on stuff for some friends and am either waiting for official photos or am waiting to ship the gifts off before I can share. In fact this afternoon I have to put the finishing touches on a couple of things before I mail them tomorrow (I keep saying this so we'll see). Tomorrow I also need to start another hedgehog. I swore I would give this pattern a break (the loop stitch it uses eventually turns me into whiny knitting girl because it's a bit slow and odd), but it's too cute and it's been requested by JB as a gift for someone. After that I'm back to trying to clear out my queue and backlog or WIPs (story of my life). January was a bit of a book month which continued into this month. Currently I'm a quarter of the way through the Complete Works of Sherlock Holmes and half way through The Golden Compass. This had lead to a bit of a Sherlock kick and really hasn't helped...
