The ones that people get as gifts for friends back home? You know, like "Grandma and Grandpa went to Katmandu and all I got was this lousy t-shirt?" Well, if I could give you a t-shirt souvenir to show what I've been doing for the past week it would read "Skinny Rabbit turned in a design project* for seven ensembles, gave an oral presentation before a jury, finished her end of the year dress and all I got were a lousy couple of inches on the front piece of her
Cat in the Hat Sweater".
*My design project (the one I had to present before a jury of design professionals) contained - among other things - two boards filled with design samples: Embroidery, motifs, sewing details and KNITTING. I worked up the majority of these samples at school but I did make a couple at home so I grabbed the camera and snapped a shot of one for you:
Motif with "Lace Ladders" from Barbara Walker's Treasury of Knitting Patterns worked into it.
While we're on the subject of school: There are only two more weeks till the end of the school year. Other than some finishing touches (embroidery and beads and sparkly schtuff) on my end of the year dress and a fashion show on Wednesday, there are no other big projects for me to turn in and I'll have knitting time for me again. Woo hoo! [Throws confetti all around.]
