Ok so I just recently joined something called Sock Wars III and tried as best I knew how to explain it to people. Most people now think I have something a bit loose upstairs if you know what I mean. Anyway I joined and got psyched for the craziness of knitting like a lunatic to get the socks off to my target who upon receiving my socks would be considered "Dead" all the while my assassin is doing exactly the same thing for me and so on and so forth for all thousand participants (oh yes its only the weird Adelaidians who haven't heard of it the rest of the world is in on it baby!). However being in Australia sort of takes the edge away because you know that if your assassin is in America you have at least 6 days to get your stuff in the mail. Anyway got my Tofutsies sock yarn in pretty 
colours and on the prescribed day at not the right hour (but I wasn't complaining) got my pattern and then had to go out - ALL DAY!! and then the next day too because of mothers day. That was on May 10th I finally got the socks finished and sent to my American target. I know my socks are in the post somewhere they are coming and my death is iminent. HA!Just to up the anti I thought I would join a killer Rabbit swap too. Why not? It was meant to start ages ago but due to unforseen circumstances it didn't happen to be ready until the same time as sock wars. I am still
working on my killer bunny but I didn't factor in the amount of wrist pain that I am now feeling after crazily knitting and crocheting. The rabbit of war will go soon but not yet this week hopefully.Other craft stuff happening is a new nightie for me. I have had it cut out for about 6 weeks now (which isn't bad for me really I still have a pair of boxers I was making for Ash when we first got married 10.5 years ago...) and finally got it finished. I have made my own iron on transfers just to pretty it up a bit because it was looking a tad boyish. Its
sooooo comfy I am going to make another one soon.
