[Tam I am]

Ahhh, yeah. It doesn't need to stretch much when being crochet.

Since Sunday evening I've started and finished three amigrumi that people asked me to make, including a morel mushroom. And since yesterday I've nearly finished the big mushi with legs that I started during the Fringe Festival last week. The big mushi is for adoption, and the shape of it is so satisfying. I hope to someday make one for myself from the same cotton yarn I made little Tessie from. I've got other projects that have to be finished first before I can start that one, though, including a rib knit doll scarf for one of the big girls.

My friend's pastor brought me a box of my friend's stuff that his roommate packed up for me. His three teddy bears, a painting, an old fashioned photo, some posters, and the green button down shirts that Arnold was so fun to hug when he wore. I cried, because seeing those shirts, which were some of his favourites, just brought it home again that he's gone.
