New Books, and work-in progress hat

Today I just got some of my order for books! Here are my new books:














I've finally gotten a stitch dictionary, and the pictures are great! Now I can use some of these to make knifty gloves and such!
The Manga drawing book, my third in general and second from this series of books, gives tips on how to use tone as shading to emphasize the presence of a character. I hope this makes my drawing better! The only thing about this was the nude female chest drawings, which could have been avoided. However, drawing books, especially anatomy and shading help, love to stick that stuff in, in case some people want to draw that *sigh*.
All in all, these should be good resources for me. Next on the list: More theology & apolegetics books, as well as costume encyclopedias and drawing help books!

My current knitting project is what I call a deep sea hat. I messed up on the pattern, but it looks pretty neat:
All the bumps are supposed to be waves, and stuff...I have 7 rows to go, then if anyone's interested, I'll post a tutorial!

Signing out,
-Jenny.
