Project Rundown

nobody@vox.com(MizCreant) — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 22:35:35 -0700

This Is Me. Knitting.

nobody@vox.com(MizCreant) — Sat, 30 Jun 2007 15:30:21 -0700

So there's this neat little toy I'm borrowing from a friend. Made this cunning hat in about 4 hours or so with sparkle yarn and "fur magic" (also called "fun fur"). I like it and it sure is easier than knitting in the traditional way. Of course...
