Colorful afghan on these cold Spring evenings

I decided to take another photo of something in the apartment. Stephanie brought home an afghan that her grandmother had made for her, and I really like the multi-color look. Since it's wet rainy and cold, I figured it would be appropriate to take a photo of something comforting.

New toy

This isn't anything special, geeky or super fun. Well it was still fun. I bought myself a fabric shaver. I had always wondered how these things worked and if they were really worth it. I decided to try it on my scarf, as it was piling like wool normally does and was full of fuzz. After 3o or so minutes, I did both sides of the scarf and pulled out quite a bit of pill/fuzz as you can see on the image. It's a neat little working tool that I purchased for about $10 and works great! Nothing fancy, all practical!
