See you in SUMMER!!!!!

Well, not officially summer... My summer begins when the crazy busy time of year ends and I can actually breathe every once in a while (and knit, and crochet, and sew, and you get the picture). I will be back on June 11 (and of course now that I said that I'm going to be in the hospital with two broken wrists on June 11) with regular (ish) posts. OK, that literally made no sense.

Here's the deal. May and early June are my busy times of year, leaving me with little time to do things I like to do when I'm not being responsible. Such as all the stuff I write about here. So, I will be taking a vacation here while the rest of my life is more demanding, and I will come back when it stops whining and actually lets me live. So, see you on June 11! (hopefully!)

Save the Rhinos. Seriously.

Today is Save the Rhinos Day, which is a really great thing to be aware of. There is a really neat group called the International Rhino Foundation, (their site is here), and I encourage anyone reading this to go check it out! Now, I have some rhino patterns for you to help you get inspired:

Crochet:
-This is not free, it is $6.20, but this feminine rhino from Delicious Crochet was just too cute to leave out!

Sewing:
-A rhino applique pattern from Free Applique Patterns

Other:
-A rhino beading graph from Unique Beaded Jewelry

There are surprisingly few patterns available online, but I'm ignoring that. See me ignoring it?

There has been more work on the sock: a few rounds here, another few there...... nothing exciting. It's coming along slow and steady, but according to Aesop that's what wins the race anyway, so there! Hopefully I will be back tomorrow with some more progress.
