10 things I want to KNIT

I just learned to knit, and I'm still learning. But I've got so many things I want to create, it's becoming a little like an addiction. At the very least, it's a stress reliever.

1. Crescent Bag


2. Bolero


3. Cabled Celtic Knot Neckwarmer


4. Cat's Pawprint Scarf


5. Fishnet Stockings


6. Lace and Belted Arm Warmers


7. An Elephant! (:


8. Owl Sweater


9. Opera Gloves


10. Watercolor Jacket
I think I've decided this is going to be my "elite level" test

wish

I wish I could make everything beautiful again.

I feel like I've lost something in the hours that I don't spend between the pages of chapbooks and novels. Something that must have been in the lens of a camera, maybe the film. A piano string. I keep trying to catch it and all I find is dust. Dust that used to mean something, that used to make me dream. I could blame time, he's the most likely culprit, but somewhere comfort slipped her blindfold over my eyes and led me into a room that wasn't my own. I'm not sure I ever had what I'm looking for, but I remember the sadness. Something so deep even my dreaming is lost.

I ache.

She asked, but..
I don't even know who the most beautiful person I've ever met was.
I wish I could still say with certainty that I knew.
