New project and Shitty camera

So my camera is a piece of fucking shit! It's like the lens is covered, but it's not! So any picture I take is just black. I don't understand what happened because last night I used it to take a picture of my cat inside my hoodie, it turned out blurry, I turned the flash on, took another picture, and just BLACKNESS!

But on a happier note, I just bought some multicolored yarn that I plan to knit some socks out of. I'm kind of iffy when it comes to using multicolored yarn for certain things, but this sock pattern is made for multicolored yarn so I'm pretty excited. Don't worry, I still plan to keep working on the Darkness Redness Whiteness Scarf,  it knits up pretty fast, but I have this problem focusing on one project until it's finished, so that's why I bought yarn for socks. I also have to finish my Chuck slippers and find motivation to get started on the Legend of Zelda blanket.

Also not to mention the camera problems, but my internet has been slow as fuck lately, taking up to 5 minutes to just load a page. I usually don't complain about this kind of shit because when I was younger we lived out in the middle of nowhere and literally had the slowest dial up connection ever, but when I'm paying for high speed internet, I expect it to be high speed internet.
Here's the yarn I'm making socks out of, I would just put the picture in here, but my camera's BROKEN and the my internet SUCKS and won't even open the little box of pictureness that I could link the picture in! I don't know if that made sense to you, I'm just upset.

Darkness Redness Whiteness Scarf Update

Just finished the 'O'. This isn't the greatest angle to view it from, my apologies. But I just wanted to show how you can start seeing the letters. ^_^ I'm probably going to have to block this because my cast on row is pretty tight compared to the other rows I've knitted so far.

Honey Badger doesn't give a Shit



This adorable little guy was made as a gift for a co-worker because of our Secret Santa thing. Her nickname is Honey Badger and this was the only thing I could think of giving her. I made up the pattern myself, which I do with a lot of things. I just crocheted until I got a shape I liked, and if I didn't like it, I frogged it and started over. So it was sort of a time consuming project and I tried so hard to finish it before she left for New York, NY for Christmas, and I did, but then we closed early so she didn't end up working and didn't get it until January.
I used a half double crochet for everything except the white stripe. The grey piece was made separately and sewn on, then I used a single crochet for the white working around sewn edge of the grey piece.

Here are some more pics of crocheted Honey Badger (I think clicking on them makes them bigger) :

Baneling Key Chain

This is a crocheted baneling key chain I made for an ex-boyfriend of mine. It's about 2 inches long, maybe? I didn't exactly measure it. But I think it's adorable. I know he liked.

Comissions

I'd just like to let anyone know who would like me to make something, to email me and let me know what they would like. My email should be listed as at the top of the page, if not comment and I'll post it. Just put 'Commission' as the subject line. I will email you back with how much I would charge and any other info you would need.

Update on Darkness Redness Whiteness Scarf

So this is as far as I've gotten, the 'T' is almost done in 'Tobuscus'. I've gotten I a couple more rows done since this picture. Hopefully this will get done pretty quickly and I can post the done pictures. :D

My Prom Shoulderette



I knitted this to go with my strapless prom dress for my junior prom. I got the pattern from the book Punk Knits, I also used a pattern to knit a matching tie for my boyfriend. It was pretty cool getting compliments form people when they found I made the shoulderette and the tie. Here's a picture from prom.
Hard to see all of the tie.
