Addendum

Having just quickly read the other posts on GKL's blog, I feel the need to point some things out...

a) I used to be a stitcher; cross stitch, embroidery, etc. I was very anti-knitting. I was adamant that GKL would never get me knitting. Until a few months ago when I gave in. It's a very addictive hobby. I've been struggling to put my knitting projects down and work on the cross stitch Christmas presents I'd started. Last night, in an insomnia-induced burst of stitching at 3 o'clock in the morning, I finished my mother's Christmas present and can now knit as much as I want, guilt free. GKL has taken this (and my small purchase of fluffy yarn at a sale yesterday - apparently buying yarn just because I like it means I have a stash and am an official knitter) to mean that I'm a knitter only. I'm not. I still stitch. Occasionally. It's just not quite as addictive as knitting. My plans for 2009 include dedicating each fortnight to one craft only. I wonder if I'll be able to be faithful.

b) My name. My actual name is Colette, which is a lovely name. But over this past summer I had a bit of an attitude and outlook and appearance adjustment and changed my name to Cleo (not legally). Colette is miserable and mopey and does nothing and wallows in the past. Cleo isn't quite that bad. Cleo is my fresh start. And, to confuse you even further, Cel'eena Cree is my blog name, a frequent RPG character and other useful alias type things. Just so you know.

I think that's it. I'm confused. And cold. Need to put heating on. And cook pizzas.

Oh, and knit....

Inspired (or maybe just copying)

So my best friend - the Glamorous knitting lady - has just advertised her blog on the Facebook group for the knitting society we set up at university. I read her first entry and decided to do my own. It's not quite copying, because I set this up ages and ages ago, I just never started blogging. Plus, I don't aspire to be the next Yarn Harlot.

Hmmm, do you know how annoying it is to type on a keyboard that has a three dodgy vowel keys? I'll give you a clue - VERY! I really need a new laptop.

GKL has a theme for her blog, her knitting adventures. I'm not quite sure what mine will be. Maybe something will emerge. Maybe not. Perhaps this will end up being years and years and years of complete rubbish. Still, it's not like anyone is going to read it :P

I can't write much longer. I have to go prepare for guests. Some roleplaying friends of mine are coming over for a session of drunken Cthulhu. Lots of alcohol :D You may hear more about one particular friend, but I'll tell you all about that tomorrow.

Ciao, Cel'eena x
