GLASSES THROUGH THE AGES

My good deed for the day has been procuring 6 pairs of glasses for Kat for her trip with GMB to Honduras that she leaves for in just over a week. (Can you tell my family is very very blind) Also here is a good reason that you don't want to join the navy if you are blind the glasses on the very left of the picture are my dads from when he was in the navy, and he is quite blind (-16 in each eye for contacts, of course only those people who wear contacts understand what that means) and he has always worn coke-bottle glasses as you can see until last year when he finally bought his own.

Also I have been doing a bit of knitting here and there. The sweater that will not die was calling to me yesterday and came to school with me and was petted for a while but wasn't worked on much. Then last night I decided I should learn how to knit continental style because it looks faster, at least when Kat does it and can get twice as much done as I can in the same amount of time.

So currently I have been sitting at my computer with the sweater that will not die and The Knit Stitch help videos learning how to do this. Hopefully another post will show much more lenght on the sweater, and some work on my own sweater from November, that I now hate the fiber because it is fake.

So current question is: should I continue with the plain blue sweater (only the front is done) even though I will probably never wear it and I really hate the gross cheap fiber and such, or should I give up and focus on my other sweaters to finish them.

P.S. This weekend with a gift card I got months ago I'm finally getting a new couple books. My first of which is a book on knitting Harry Potter themed clothes called Charmed Knits. I am super excited for this as you should, as is the boyfriend because he's been asking for a Gryffindor scarf for a couple months now.
