Fun Weekend

We had a pretty action packed weekend this weekend, as compared to our normally home-bound ones. I also got a lot of time to knit my UO shrug, which made me very happy. I'm using a cotton from Schaefer yarns called Frida Kahlo combined with Kidsilk Haze. It's a really nice, soft fabric with some fuzz-factor to make it really girly. I think I'm going to like it alot. The body of the piece is done in a stitch called Mock Rib, and the effect is a really spongy stitch that looks like stockinette but it's actually composed of a 1x1 rib on the front and a purl and slipped stitch on the back. I really like the way it looks, but I'm worried that it's taking up a ton of yarn. Hopefully I'll have enough!

On Friday we went to see a band called Grupo Fantasma with a bunch of friends. They're our friend's favorite band from Austin so we always go with a big group when they're in town. It had been a long time since I've been dancing, but it was fun to jump around a bit.

Anyways, it's been brough to my attention that my blog is lame now because I never post...and I guess that I didn't need someone to tell me that for me to know it's true! I think I've got to work on posting more often, so hopefully you'll be hearing more from me in the future.
