Mr. Panta and the Mystery Sculpture

September 9, 2007

So I have been rather naughty and completely avoiding my HP sculpture. Why, why does the perfection of the left eye elude me? Though this will probably jinx me and prevent me from finishing it forever, I shall give you a teaser angle:

HP Sculpture, In Progress
Can you guess who it is? Probably.

Instead of working on it more, I have been playing around on Ravelry (I’m TheGeekMystique there, if anyone would like to add me) and started trying to knit my first hat. As seems to be tradition around these parts, I don’t have any pictures to show of what I’m currently working on, just pictures of things I finished weeks ago.

So I present to you another piece from my crafting past: the third thing I ever knit (I’m only on my like, sixth thing, but oh well). It’s just a plain grey Panta, knit from this pattern with Bernat Softee Chunky yarn. Being one of my first projects, it’s flawed, but I love it nonetheless. If only it weren’t 100+ degrees here in California, I would wear it often.

It’s all about perspective, baby.

I really must see about going to grad school in a cold state, so I can see what it’s like to wear and use something you’ve knit.

Finally, in “I have crafting ADD news”, I am currently dreaming of experimenting with stained glass and resin casting. Oh, if only I had the time and energy for all of the artsy things I would like to be doing.
