The Big To-Do

Since Spring Break is tailspinning to a close, I best get to some of the enormous stack of reading gathering dust on my desk. This week has absolutely flown, and April will be my busiest month, and I have a feeling May will arrive all in a flash. Stupid time, always running away from everyone. I've always envied Meg Ryan's character in Prelude to a Kiss, who hadn't slept for like twenty years.

In any case, since I have so little time to knit, I thought now would be a good time to share a partial, unordered list of patterns I'd like to tackle in the next however-long. Wishful thinking:

1930 - vintage-inspired undie set
hush-hush - vintage inspired nightgown
clapotis - shawl / scarf

sassy stripes - strapless top
