I'm really my Daddy's girl when it comes to tax time, as I go all gooshy over the tax return. Last time I had to call Dad right after my Accountant Meeting cause I knew he'd be really proud of me. I don't earn THAT much money, but I have fingers in pies and have the nickname 'Thrifty' around town. So I often get a good return for our little family.
So, I've discovered also that I'm quite sick! I coughed all last night with horrid dreams and have totally lost my voice. Today's been really weird cause I'm such a mover and shaker that I can't sit still. I slept for a bit, then we did our tax, but I started a little project yesterday that I wanted to share with you...
and I don't get that nickname 'Thrifty' for nothing I tell ya!
My parents are visiting this week, and I know they'll point out that we don't have a bath mat, or in our case, a shower mat. We did have one from the Swedish Company but it didn't last long... so after the clothes swap on Saturday (a huge success btw) I went through and grabbed out the extra black, red and white tshirts (and a couple I'd put in the refashion basket) and started googling and cutting:
I found this tutorial on rag knitting, and hopefully I'll soon have a bath mat like this one!
The pattern is from the cocoknits website, and you should totally have a look cause it looks ACE, I'm totally into making some booties for grown ups! Maybe they'll be easier than my baby booties?
See you later! *cough cough*
Get well soon! Don't knit yourself to death!
