All of the Peter Collars!

Whilst I was spending lovely love love time with Onee-chan in Bournemouth, we discovered how to make peter pan collars. I know how to knit (admittedly a beginner), so once I found this tutorial on how to knit a peter pan collar you can imagine what my face looked like. The pattern was quite hard at first, but I tried another time and got the hang of it. The pictures below are my second try. The tutorial says to knit 13 rows for each strap, I tried this and thought that she must have a pretty skinny neck because it definitely didn't fit around mine (kind of strangled myself a bit). Instead I knitted 30 rows for each strap and cast off as she said in the tutorial. 

(And then I Purikura-d the picture o(>.<)o because I'm toats cool like that)

My next try will be to do this tutorial which is for a felt peter pan collar and looks far neater than the knitted one. Although the knitted one does look pretty spectacular in its own right.

Life so far...

So, after finishing my Foundation year now (I'm still doing work for it right now, but that's due in tomorrow and yes I know it's 2:05 in the morning but I've had a snooze and lots of coffee okay?) it's time for partaaayyys! My friend Holly has recently been to New York and she spent sooo much money, but she saved for it so it's fine XD. Even though she spent most of her money over there, the day she came back was also the day she got paid from her work and got her allowance! So, in order to celebrate having large amounts of money, she bought herself a new iPhone! We waited in the orange shop for soooo long and after waiting about 1h30 hours (at least!) she got her new phone! During this time I discovered that Instagram was available for android, so I had a bit of an instagram fest... After that we celebrated at Pizza Express and waited for her phone to work.

Later on that day we had a party to go to in Reading, which meant a one hour road trip with friends George and James! It was a fun road trip and me and Holly tried to take a picture in the back of the car but it was a bumpy road so it didn't really work out... (above)

Ah drunk instagram times... How we love you!

The day after:

Lying in the sun (got sunburnt) and wearing George's (size 12) shoes and eating apples. Also found a number plate with half my nickname on... SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

There was a random red chair in my bathroom and I'm not quite sure why... Instagram it! Because I can! I also took some really artsy shots because I'm cool like that... >.<

Then Nanny showed me the smallest strawberries I've ever seen! They tasted really good... And now I'm doing work and possibly done the largest amount of writing I've ever had to do during my Art Foundation YEAR... A whole year...

     

And that concludes my life so far... Soon more instagram pictures!! Until I get bored of instagram... Might not happen for a while...
