Mmmm, water

Hahahahahaha!

Also, I placed a huge honkin' order for recycled sari silk yarn from Shangri-la Crafts. Their service is questionable (slow, unresponsive), but the prices are unbeatable.

I really ought to get knitting. I'm up to the armholes on the silk jacket. I just started a sleeve. It's really easy, but the yarn is a little difficult. The first five hanks were only mildly difficult to work with due to the texture. The sixth hank has been a massive pain in the butt. Now I understand why people complain about it twisting on itself. Something about the way it was spun was causing it to do all sorts of twisting and stuff. I finally had to unwind the ball, straighten things out, and rewind it. Now it's much better, but I hope I don't run into many more of the badly twisted hanks.
