Knitting and other Creative Endeavors

I crocheted a very purple hobo bag which ended up looking exactly like a very purple hobo bag. I'm so proud. Speaking of it being too hot to handle yarn, I did most of the work on that project while sitting at the pool in Palm Springs a week or two ago. Was it hot? Yes, but I was obsessed (just one more row and I can go in the pool).

There's no way I'm going to work on a scarf until winter. But I decided it was time to tackle to something to wear so I'm going to crochet a short-sleeve sweater. It only took me three tries to get the gauge right. I think I'll plunge in and start it today. Let's see, I should finish it just in time to make a matching scarf because the weather will be too cold for it by then.
