Stuff

I got quite far with my wrap cardigan, I did the back and half of one side of the front, but then my mum raided my room and threw away half of the messy scraps of paper I'd written my vague pattern on, so I don't think I'll be able to go on with it now, I can't remember what I did! Anyway, I haven't done any knitting for ages because I've been busy with work and dance exams, but today I'm going to start a new project. There's loads of stuff I want to make, but I'm going to start with a variation on Dragonfly from Knitty.com. I'm not doing it two different yarns and I won't be doing the dragonfly stitch because I just want a plain sweater, but I love the neckline, so that'll be my starting point. So after work today I'm going to the wool shop to find something to make it with, I'd like it in black I think, something nice and soft to keep me warm at uni!

Also, I'm going to start a list of things I want to make, because I always find stuff I love and then lose it. So here goes:
