It took me another entire day of work but this last header is really "me". The others were nice, but this one reflects more my personality and the personality of this Blog. Besides I put on the header all the progress icons I made until now :-)
Happy! Happy! Happy!
And now I can finally go back on crocheting... It's time!
As you can see I have changed Cloudy Crochet's header. I have been working on this all morning, but I have to say I'm not 100% satisfied. I think I'll go on trying different headers in the next days! ;-)
Here are different headers I've been tying, I guess now I am satisfied with this one...
I found this test on Sue's Blog, Good Yarns. Very funny, and in some way true.

But you also need to hibernate and enjoy your "down time." Conscientiousness: You have high conscientiousness. Intelligent and reliable, you tend to succeed in life. Most things in your life are organized and planned well. But you borderline on being a total perfectionist. Agreeableness: You have low agreeableness.

Lately I have been neglecting a bit this blog, and I'm very sad about it. The fact is that I have started working as a payed blogger. Can you believe it? Actually there is an Italian blog network, called Blogo.it, that publishes daily very focused webblogs on various subject. I have been recruited for the "women blog", it's called Pinkblog.it and it's taking a lot of my spare time!
I try to post as much as I can on Knit&Crochet, a practice not yet very fashionable and cool among the younger Italian ladies, and I hope it will get some attention thanks to me. It would be great.
That's why my last post was on Pam of Knotty Generation, I really think she's a very nice example of a woman who made her passion into a proper proper profession. I hope my Italian friends will take the example from her and from you all, passionate crocheters around the world!
This is what I'd like to realize this springtime :-) I already know that I will never have the time, but I'd love to!
I have a real weakness for Vogue Knitting. Every time a new issue hits the kiosks I fell in love with its new collection of perfectly knitted and crocheted garments, sweaters, skirts and more. Look at the new Spring/Summer collection 2007, isn't it gorgeous?
I know I will never ever have the patience, the skills and the budget to realize models like those, but I like to dream about it! ;-)
I've just received an e-mail from Lion Brand informing that they started doing podcasts with knitting videos, look at that tutorial on how to knit with Ruffles Yarn.
Interesting isn't it? Actually I tried downloading the Quicktime version and didn't work, but the flash version works pretty good. Nice!
