Wow. Apparently I should post more often. I've been fielding tons of spam over the past week or so, and as soon as I made that last post, it came down to a much more manageable amount. (I know I should install some sort of spam protection over here, but uploading any significant number of files on dialup is such a hassle. I'm waiting until I get back to school in the fall to make some technical updates around here.)
At any rate, I don't have any photos of my recent projects, but I do have some pictures that I've been meaning to upload for over a month now. I snapped these during finals and moveout--it's the final load of what I send to Afghans for Afghans.
30 pairs of socks and 11 hats. On the bottom right, the three bottom hats and three pairs of socks were donated by other students. I kind of wish I'd had more involvement, but ah well. That's still a whopping 300 warm toes and 22 warm ears.
Excuse the mess. This was taken during move-out, and nothing's every pretty when you're packing up everything you own, especially when you live 3,000+ miles away from school. The top afghan was a collaborative donation from my school's fledgling Stitch 'n' Bitch club, and it makes me so happy! The bottom one is my first granny square afghan. (It had some truly horrible and bizarre color combinations, since it was basically made out of every scrap of worsted weight wool I could get my hands on . . . but it didn't look as bad as it could have.)
In other, truly exciting news, in just over two weeks, I'm going to Vietnam! A close friend from school is Vietnamese, and she invited me to come along with her on their trip this summer. I am psyched. I'll be taking my computer, so assuming I can find an Internet connection, there will be blogging and photos.
