“And what are you?”

“I am proud to be a Librarian!”

(The Mummy, 1999, Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz)

While I’m not an official Librarian, I do work at a library and I would like to go to school to be a librarian. I love books! Currently, I am a Page – I get a cart of books, sort it, and put all the books back on the shelves.

Some times I don’t really want to go in to work, but I do really like my job. It’s air conditioned, it’s kind of fun, and… most of my co-workers knit! It’s really cool to share knitting projects with them. Last week, I got the best surprise when I came in. B gave me three shopping bags full of yarn!!
(Sorry for the terrible photos)

I have some things planned already.. I’m going to use the red Reynolds Chesapeake to make B a Noble Cowl. (Ravelry Link) I want to make a felted bag from the Tipperary Tweed, and a baby blanket from the cotton. So many ideas!

And besides all of that, I have been working on some small projects. Alucard’s birthday was a few days ago, and I had been persevering at a pair of fingerless gloves for him. But he has big hands. I tried using the Knucks pattern from Knitty, but it wasn’t even close. After two gloves that didn’t fit, he said that he really wanted a hat anyways. >_<
I like making hats, and I cast one on yesterday. I’m going to embroider the Nintendo logo on it – my first endeavor at any big embroidery! I’m excited ^_^

I’ve also been working on a scarf using the three leftover skeins from Magdelena’s shrug. It’s the Not Quite Straight Scarf by Nicole Hindes. I really love this pattern! I wanted something just easy enough to keep me interested.
I also went on an adventure to an alpaca farm near here! The couple who own it were really nice and we will definitely go back again. It’s going to be made into the fingerless gloves for my art teacher.

Enough talktalktalk! I’m going to go knit, and hopefully you weren’t bored to death by this post!
