Buried under yarn

Thu Feb 26, 2009, 10:03 PM
Holy shite.
I am horribly ashamed of myself.
2 years fallen off the face of the earth, producing nothing, posting nothing, fallen into artistic obscurity, and my excuse...
Knitting.
Curse the day I ever re-taught myself this over-addictive handicraft, that has kidnapped and is holding my creativity hostage. I haven't been drawing. I haven't been writing. I haven't been editing my photos. I have, however, knitted many pairs of socks, mittens and hats for my friends and family, even sold a few to support my yarn habit.

so there it is. the awful truth. yarn.

In other updates, I have been back in Canada for over a year now, having left my teaching job in Japan a month before the company went bankrupt. I am currently living in a small apt with my boyfriend in a small city far too close to home, working as a waitress in a small restaurant while I wait to pack myself off to Toronto for a crash course in publishing.

I hereby promise to, if not force my artistic side to resurface, at least continue to put up anything art-worthy that has thus far been neglected.

Can you post fiber art?

Anyway, I'd like to thank everyone who kept checking out and commenting on my work while I have been held captive by lace and short rows. keep it up

Hey chickie. I am the worst person for keeping in touch with, well, anything. Unfortunately, I'm not in Japan anymore, but in oh-so-exciting fredericton biding my time before becoming some kind of publishing whore. what's even worse, I havn't put anything up here in a frikin year! Oh knitting! Why must you be so addictive!

Si la vida te da la espalda...agárrale las nalgas!!!
oh my goodness. I don't even know where that is anymore. Though if there is interrest, I will put some chunks of it up in my scraps. It's one of those stories i'm trying to let go of since I know it will come to nothing in the end. But, if someone enjoys what I've got of it, then I might be encouraged to keep it up.
thanks for the interrest
