Another Diversion.
May. 11th, 2006 08:19 pmI've finished with my Airy Scarf (I'll post photos later) and I thought I needed another little project to keep me happy when I should be suffering with Cotton Fleece. I had already bought a ball of Knit Picks Andean Silk for swatching and I decided to try making the Merino Tee from Interweave Knits Winter 2003. It's a raglan short-sleeved sweater and so far it seems easy:

I'm using Andean Silk in Bluebell. The color looks nothing like it does on the site! I've heard that people have had misgivings about this yarn (it's an alpaca/silk/merino blend) but I haven't had any problems. It's soft!
If this works out I'd like to make one for Kristen and my mother. Me and my plans!
Mother 3 is kicking my ass. I've died four times in the game so far and it's pissing me off! My characters are all around level 45 (Boney is the highest at level 49, heh heh). I don't know if level-grinding is the answer but here goes nothing!
Being able to wander around the jungle with my party members high on 'shrooms was a nice payoff for that hellish underwater dungeon. I don't know what disturbed me more, the illusion of Flint running around yelling "I'm going to beat you!" or the mail box filled with dead rats. That was one awful trip! And hey...Duster has a bad leg? I don't remember it being mentioned before in the game but I noticed that his character sprite walks with a distinctive swagger and the first fake Wes said it was his fault that Duster can't use his leg properly. Aw, poor Duster. In case you haven't noticed, I love Duster. Kristen says she doesn't mind that I talk about how awesome he is but I wonder if I'm his only fan? Everyone should love Duster!
But yeah, I died and I'm going to level up.
