gym class heroes like their studs.

Get load of this crazy jacket worn by Travis McCoy on the set of 'Open Happiness'! Shiny stuff :D


Travis was part of a collab project for the song 'Open Happiness' along with a handful of other artists. If you're wondering what it is, here's a link to the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cxfkg3RaRjs

Yeah, it's a marketing scheme for Coke. But look at that insane jacket!

confessions of a lazy, unmotivated knitter. + buy a white shirt!

Do you remember that tofu pincushion I said I would make? Yes? The one with a face? Yes? Well, I have a confession to make. I've really only done one side :( I know, I'm terrible at committing to stuff. My (poor, very poor) excuses are that I have no black yarn to make the face so I should just wait for it and that I was busy experimenting with increasing/decreasing stitches. But of course that's completely illogical because I can still knit the other faces with the cream yarn I have and plus experimenting was finished two months ago. I do apologise, and hopefully after exams I can finish the rest of it.

On a lighter note (and possibly more helpful) if you live in Australia, be sure to buy a white shirt from Witchery. You can't go wrong with a white shirt and 100% of proceeds will go to research into ovarian cancer, so get out there! On top of that, it's an excuse to go shopping :D

Apologies, and get shopping!

very complex geometry.


So today I attempted this geometric neclace, inspired by http://fatlace.com/ladylike/diy/ddlais-diy-geometric-necklace.html and http://www.parkandcube.com/?p=2865. In my head, it was going to be fully epic, but alas, due to my total lack of skill, it was not as epic as I hoped. Firstly, I totally miscalculated how many eye pin things I had to buy and I was two short. Then, halfway through the initial shape I was going to do, I ran out of patience. I still think it turned out alright though.

Oops.

Sorry, guys! I missed the first Tuesday of October. Apologies, and here it is:

Love it or Leave it?

Bubble skirts, like this:


(beaut vintage by the way. Well, I think so.)

You know the drill. :D
