I just finished knitting my first thing. It's a long scarf, half hot pink and half black. Though, the black part is about an inch shorter than the pink because I somehow screwed it up a little. Anyway, it's nifty. It even has little black and pink tassles on it.
I found a yarn shop in the area today. Sweet mother of science, there's a lot of nice yarn. I bought four (small) skeins, and the total was $40. To of the skeins were half priced, so together they were only $10. The other two are a really nice merino blend that feels awesome. I got one skein of lavender and one of light grey. I've got no clue what I want to knit next. I was thinking about arm warmers but they would be much easier to knit on circular needles, which I don't have. Then again, I could just knit one piece and sew it together with yarn or ribbon or something.
There's a nip in the air here. Most of the leaves haven't changed colors but it's definitely becoming fall. The high was in the mid 50s today and will get down in the 30s tonight. Definitely a change to what I'm used to.
*sigh* My family can be so demanding sometimes.
