Cookies of Evil.

I've been so busy stuffing my gob full of girl scout cookies I haven't been able to bring myself to post. I blame it on the dramatic drop in my sugars after the chocolate covered minty cookies crash my hard drive. Those little sash wearing, badge earning moppets are the minions of the debil. Next year I refuse to be sucked in for five boxes no matter how cute the pushers of sinister yet perfectly round morsels of sin. My self control has gotten so bad I've altered my diet to minimize the consumption of other foods. At this rate I expect to be able to eat regularly again by the first Tuesday of next month. In honor of this distinction I will be renaming myself "Captain Tightpants."

In other news I've cast on for two sweaters in search of the perfect sweater
The Sahara sweater by Wendy Barnard.

The Icelandic Yoke Sweater by Elizabeth Zimmermann.

I've also purchased the pattern for the Simple Bodice by Stefanie Japel (She's also a Physicst, yo. But I bet she doesn't eat girl scout cookies by the pound).

When I'm done I'll have three beautiful sweaters. One of which will become America's Next Top Sweater for me, Captain Tightpants. Stay tuned, Kittens.

I've been coveting the simple bodice sweater for a long time. That may have to be my next go at the elusive perfect sweater, too.
