Oodles of FOs

Based on the shape my house was in after spring break, it's pretty apparent that I didn't spend much time there. Based on the mountains of papers I have piled around me, it's pretty apparent that I didn't get much grading done.

One thing I did do during the Terrible, Horrible, No-Good, Very Bad First Quarter of 2012 was knit. Rather than writing an FO post for each of these projects, I'm going to get them all done in one.
