birthday goodness

 
It was kind of sucky to have to work on my birthday for several reasons- but after a Japanese dinner, a bottle of Kirin, a little relaxing, and receiving tickets (woot woot!) to see the Police  in concert in a few days I'm a happy camper. I am even in the process of making something for myself for once- a pair of wool socks. I  have been quiet lately, but I've been knitting and thinking a lot. I never thought I'd knit a pair of socks in my entire life, but this was really fun to learn- mainly because I could not resist buying this Hundertwasser yarn! I love Hundertwasser so when I saw this yarn resistance was futile. One of my Flickr contacts pointed out that this yarn and the sock perfectly match this street art photo I took in Christiania recently :o)
