This, my friends, is the tacky sweater vest that I started in Wyoming. :) I had a great time working on it. It's also where most of my money went. mmmmmm pretty yarn. The colors are all inspired by the Wyoming landscape and what I experienced. A lot of the back colors comes from both Yellowstone (Artist Point) and looking close at the white bark pine trees. Once I got to doing to front and needed more yarn I realized that I didn't have the main colors of the mountainous landscape as a whole! The fresh amazing blues and purples of the mountains, the greeeeeeens of the pine trees and the SAGE! Oh I miss the sage and the smell of pine sap. yum. I wish I had some of that under my nose.
Also, note to the knitter: guage of yarn DOES matter. The front came out smaller because all of the yarn I used was smaller and I didn't use a different size needle to compensate. oops.
None the less...YAY:
I miss you Wyoming. I love you everyone.
life is good.

weave. wove. woveded. weavies. weaves. weave.
Today I made a mini loom.
(I get my vein-y feet from my mom by the way.)
Then I wove a mini landscape piece. :)
I'm excited to further develop this. I have IDEAS!
Also, my mom is very talented:
And the other day while I was working on the floor looms in class, I realized that I don't need hair, because I can brush and untangle warp all my life :)

finding things.
So, I found the pages of a book I made freshman year in my Computer Applications class. It was about the "body of work" I had at that point.
I thought they were interestinggggggggggggggg. hey g's look really cool consecutively.
gggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
This was the cover page. They each had writing on them. But...that's lost.
In my opinion. This is the best one. ^Get it?
If you look closely at dryer sheets. They look really awesome. Just sayin. Felt.
