...Like say post to this here blog...School starts and my fun stuff seems to come to a screeching halt for awhile, while I re-adjust to getting up at 6 again every morning. (I am not a morning person) I have been doing a fair amount of knitting...but here's what I've been up to!
Dyed some yarn for the Owls sweater. 
I so love the RYC soft tweed and when it was discontinued I went a bit overboard and have lots...this oatmeal color really not so good on me.
So now it's a lovely grape color. (What a surprise right Pam?)
Finished my Corona Sweater. 
I was a bit worried about how it would come out, but I'm really happy with it... 
I'd post my mods and stuff but I'm feeling lazy so head on over to the Ravelry page for them if you want. It is knit out of Dream in Color Classy in the color Good Luck Jade. I think this will be a great sweater for fall winter! 
I've also started the Heather Hoodie Vest 
from the Fall09 Knitscene as a Kal with my girls over on Cleveland Knits West.
I need to finishmy pink hoodie..the knitting's been done forever...but no button band reinforcement and snaps put in. (I'm just trying to decide how to put it in..by hand or by machine. I'd rather put it in by machine but need to put it in by hand I have a feeling)
AND Seam up my gray short sleeve cardi. Before it gets to cold to wear it. (though I think I'd be cute under a long sleeve tee too.)
I should but probably won't straighten up my sewing room and my yarny mess.
Plus clean up my house and get out a few of my Halloween decorations
I have high hopes, since hubby is taking some classed Sat. and Sunday and I have NO plans this weekend!
Nice...crap...now I gotta go blog too...haha! ;-)

Corona turned out great! I like it in the variegated yarn. I never tried any of the Dream in Color yarns before - looks like I should!
I like the way you dyed the Soft Tweed - I've never tried dyeing yarns either. Oatmeal is a tough color for anyone to pull off - the grape will be much prettier.

I love the yarn you dyed. I just started experimenting with dying last weekend. I only dyed little skeinletes of 5 grams each, but it was a lot of fun and I can see a lot of dying in my future.
I also love your Corona Sweater; I really want to make one of those someday. There are just way to many patterns I want to knit and not nearly enough time in the day.

Ooo. I love the Owls sweater- what a great color.
How could you worry about how your sweater would come out- every sweater I've ever seen you model looks like an amazing fit and this one is no exception! Can't wait to see the Owl sweater in that color!
