No knitting, but some finishing

So I finally got around to blocking all my endpapers. (not sure why the photo is blurry. .. . must be from compressing it down from 4 MB) Blocking really did settle down and even out the floats, so the pattern looks much more even. I'm very pleased with my first (well, first 3!) attempts at color work. The turquoise pair went out to Anna today. My pair are now living in my coat pocket and the final pair will go to their giftee as soon as her scarf is dry from it's blocking.

Deb's socks & mom's bag are coming along, as well.

On an unrelated note, I'm going back to school!! No, really! I've toyed around with the idea for a while now. At first I was just going to audit some classes, but I decided to actually apply to the Associates degree program. I'm not going back full time, just one class for now in the evening. What am I studying, you ask? Interior Design! Fun, right?! I'm pretty excited. Since I've gotten back into knitting and doing house projects and sewing, I'm discovering this is something I really think I'd like, and also that I'd be good at. So I'm off to the community college tomorrow to officially enroll. Yay!
