What Bentochan has been doing the last week

-Realized she bought the wrong amount of yarn for a project.
-Went to the Jewish History Museum for class and got lost in the Holocaust section.
-Got really lost in Atlanta.
-Made plans for Coraline in 3D!
-Learned about the Vikings invading England.
-Painted my room and got new bookshelves (that are, apparently, not for books).
-Read more of Circuit Rider's Wife.
-Wondered what happened to Anna Short.

Yes. Bookshelves aren't really for books. They're for photographs.

My mistake.

There's a book sale tomorrow at one of the Atlanta Libraries. Woot!

Wrong amount of yarn as in too much or too little? Either way is annoying.

It's more like both I and the sales lady misread the instructions in the pattern. It says something like "2 balls blah blah yarn with some sort of fiber and some other sort of fiber = 200 yards." but what they really mean is each ball is 200 yards.

So I bought one skein of Cascade 220.

Got home, looked at the pattern again, wished I knew how to cable, looked at the pattern some more, noticed on Ravelry it calls for 400 yards. *sigh*
