I’m having my monthly bout of insomnia right now, I’ve had two hours of sleep in the past twenty-four, so I’m not entirely coherent right now.  One good thing does come out of not sleeping, though, and that is lots and lots of knitting time.  I knit five inches on Mariah’s hood and about a quarter of the foot of my spiral sock.  And I’m all caught up on episodes of Carnivàle, which is one of my new favorite shows, even if I’ve missed a few episodes and am completely lost, it’s just a great, weird show (and this is coming from someone who rarely watches TV). 

I’m formulating ideas for a couple designs, a crocheted purse and another kids sweater (I may have at least one order coming in for a cardigan like the last one I made).  And, apparently, hand knit scarves are a huge thing locally so I’m trying to talk my parents into funding some novelty yarn so I can knit some light springy ones to sell.  There are many ideas in the brewing stage and I just hope they work out.  I’ll think about it more later, after I’ve had some sleep.
