Flighty, much?

I'm already sick of crochet. I made a dishrag, and hated every minute of it. Cotton is absolutely no fun to crochet with- the non-stretchy factor makes it a real bitch to get that little hook through the stitches with any sort of speed. I don't hate crochet, and it's obviously a useful skill to have, but I'm sure as shit not going to be crocheting any more cotton dishrags.

I finished a square for another Obama afghan:

This afghan will look like the flag, and be made up of squares representing each state (except the star section, which is just solid blue with stars). I did West Virginia (IL and MD were already taken) and I actually made two- the first one was about an inch too big. Not sure how I didn't notice that, but whatever. They're quick. Second square came out just the right size, and is on it's way to be sewn up with the others. Just like the other afghan, this one will be raffled off by the Ravelry group Knitters for Obama. If you're on Ravelry, check out the group for more info. If you're not on Ravelry, and you want the chance to win a hand-knit Flag afghan, contact me and I'll tell you how to do it. Either way, go here and give him $$.

I managed to squeeze in a few more rows on the Clapotis, but it's still largely neglected. Now I'm pounding out a small bag for Scott's toiletries (for when he travels), per his request. It's in cheap, easy-care Red Heart so it can take a beating.

I ordered a little yarn. I'm going to make a super-secret project. It's small, so when the yarn arrives, it shouldn't be too much longer before the big reveal. Stay tuned.
