 Miraculous news!  I actually sent off Filbrina!  I finished my little turtle for S!  It's amazing!  Here she is in all of her adorable fugliness.  I can't explain it, but she really is cute even with the crazy color combination.  I think I didn't want to finish her, because it meant she had to leave me, but I know she is going to a happy home.  Even if S doesn't like Filbrina (she has a real live tortoise named Filbert), I have bribed her with handknit dishcloths, so she will have to take Filbrina into her happy home.  :)

I didn't work on Filbrina last night.  In fact, I completely forgot my pledge to work on her  and worked on the Mystery Stole instead.  Yeah, I am a commitmentphobe.  In my own defense, I just did the "provisional cast-on" (I started on two different ones, but got impatient since I was in a different room as their instructions and just cast on with scrap yarn instead), the anchor row and the center row.  No "real" knitting has commenced.

They're practically medicinal.
Okay, off to find some grub and possibly work on Twizzler!
