I smell trouble

After posting that I had too many projects on the needles, what do I do?

I cast on another one of course!Fortunately, it came of the needles pretty quick. I started it yesterday and finished it up today. This is, of course, Fibre Trends' Huggable Hedgehog - pre-felting. This one is for the baby girl due in September who I've been knitting for.

Unfortunately, I don't think I can put it in the washer and felt it all by itself... it might get scared and lonely. I think it needs some friends. But they will have to wait a little while, I just picked up a second job and will be in training every night this week... that means all the time I had to get ready for the show next Saturday is now condensed into one day .... tomorrow.

I had today too, but the vehicular fates conspired against me, and by the time they decided to kiss and make up, I was too pissed off and worn out to do anything really constructive. I came home, had a bath, cooked some really greasy food, watched an insanely funny movie full of toilet humour and finished up my 'hog.

In addition, I also have this tempting me....
Mom bought this for me... I've been eyeing Hansi Singh's patterns for a while, and when we saw she had a whole book.... who could resist?

There is a special guy in my life who's getting crabs for his birthday! Hermit Crabs that is! (Good thing his birthday is in July, I ahve a little time)

But I should go...

Oh, I love that hedgehog! I've never done a stuffed animal before, but that book might tempt me... :)
