I have a few knitting projects in progress, and a few planned. Hopefully I can finish them by the time I return to Bluefield.

The first that I hope to finish is a scarf, in dark purple wool. Once it's finished, I'll transfer another project to the circular needles that the scarf is on. I'll also start a set of matching wristwarmers. After my first full year at Bluefield, I know that it's cold and windy for a good part of the school year!

The second project is a shawl, in lavender cotton. When it's not cold, there will be chilly days -- and some of the classrooms have the air conditioning high enough that a shawl will be useful in August.

I'd also like to knit a few Swiffer covers and washcloths. I love my Swiffer, but I'm less fond of paying for a box of the cloths to throw them away. Similarly, washcloths can be used to clean most surfaces and objects, or set underneath a hot mug or bowl.

I've also been re-creating my planner. I like to be as organized as possible, but planners found at Wal-Mart or Target aren't set up the way I like. In addition to creating a layout that works well for my needs, a self-made planner includes sections for information I like to have easily available (like fitness records or knitting patterns) and is in colors that I like.

Finally, I've been playing with copper wire and hematite combinations for jewelry. I'm also hoping to have a shop set up before too long.

The first entry is always the most difficult, isn't it?

Well, the obvious details...I'm Sheena, I'm a student at Bluefield College. I just finished my first year at Bluefield. I'm 23, an English major, intending to pursue teacher education...
What other information is needed? Well, I've recently started yoga and karate, I've been knitting for nearly three years and making jewelry for about seven.

Well, since this is quickly starting to resemble a bad personal ad, I'll end here.

Have a lovely day :)
