So the song of the morning is thankfully once again a good one: A Desolation Song, by Agalloch.
In terms of crafting, progress is being made on the collection of amigurumi I will henceforth call the Horror Bunnies :D I'm having way too much fun making them. However, all good things must, come to an end... or at least be put on hold until my TEST WEEK FROM HELL (TM) is over *sobs*. However, I hope to at least finish the three I have been working on before the week is out, since I doubt my short attention span will keep me entirely plastered to my books. Not least since with 2 of the three I need only do the finishing touches.
The finishing touches have made me consider the merits of using different materials for eyes... which would be best: safety eyes, beads, buttons or felt circles? I have a fairly limited range of safety eyes available to me at nearby habby stores, so those are mostly out, whereas buttons and felt come in a million different colours and shapes. The downside of felt is that I then have to try to cut the circles out to be the same size and, you know, circular. I have surprising amounts of difficulty with this. Hmmm... finishing touches may be put on hold until I successfully source buttons in the colours that I need. I suspect the ragdoll-look of buttons may actually suit the Horror Bunnies, but you guys can judge for yourselves when I finish them and post pics.
