Yarn for the gloves

SHHHHH, dont tell anyone here I am bidding on several batches of sock yarn on ebay. I found the most beautiful stuff I may have to use for my gloves. Sock yarn-Melody is the brand and The Colony based in Dallas is the company. I have 5 bids right now, most batches come in 10 balls anywhere from 110-220 yards/ball. I am bidding $30 right now and will probably not pay more than that for them. I have bought yarn from them before, it is so soft, have not worked it up yet but I do have plans for what I have bought. there are 5 pages out there for sale on ebay, so take a look. I am in no way affliated with them, just think they have beautiful yarn for a very decent price. If i get what I am bidding on I will have 14520 yards for $150. Not bad.

Idol

Ok is Idol getting worse every year or am I just tired of it already. The contestants this year just dont do much for me. I do like Lakisha and Doolittle a lot and the 17 year old girl, the guys are ok, I liked Rudy and he is gone already. After this week they will get serious and we will see who is left.

Is it April 15th yet?

I keep checking glovekal.blogspot.com cos we now have 17 knitters signed up to do those amazing gloves. I have one color picked out but cant find the right second color, well I do have a month to scour the LYS's. I need to take some pics and get them on here of things I have accomplished, but it cuts into my knitting time.

Bjork, it wont seem to knit itself and go away, it keeps staring at me, maybe I need to ban it to the basement and put it in a corner somewhere so when someone finds my stash after I am dead maybe they will finish it for me.

I wish.
