Branching Out in Alpaca.

My Aunt had a coworker who raises alpacas and she knew I love to knit with fun yarns so she most graciously sent me some. She sent a ball of sparkly blue and one of a beautiful green for me to use and a black for me to make a scarf for her.
The pattern I used is called Branching Out by Knitty.com, it's one I have wanted to try for a while. My Aunt loves gardening so I thought that the leaf pattern would be perfect for her.



The yarn ended up going much further than I expected it to, so I was left with extra to use up. So I started making the least yarn intensive projects I knew how, that being mainly flowers. Flowers going well with the leaves and I, continuing to be left with more yarn that I intended after a project, ended up making several.

College Girl

Yesterday was my first day of college. I have 2 classes twice a week, MAT 1111 (college algebra) and AHS 104 (intro to health care). I had about a half a class of math before the school shut down because of the snow, so I didn't get to my health class. My classes are at night, and in the mornings I babysit a little neighbor girl who's dad has classes the same days but in the mornings.
