These two lovely summer tops appeared in the last issue of Knitter's Magazine, Issue 106. I loved both at once, and couldn't decide between. Finally I gave in and purchased the yarn for both of them. Ty-Dy Dots for the one shown on the left: even though it is ridiculously expensive, I love the way the little dots on the yarn embellish the "dots" made by the crossed stitches. And it is Cascade Ultra Pima for the top on the right, but in rose pink. This yarn has a soft glow to it, and makes for a dressy garment. I also got some sweet little glass buttons to place where the beads are. (Click to enlarge)
Job update: Absolutely. Nothing.

I'm sure you've already thought of this, but have you thought about checking into becoming a substitute teacher? If you have the credentials to teach college it's very possible that you also qualify as a substitute. I also know that when I was at Trident they had substitute profs so perhaps that might be a way to get your foot in the door, and they used to pay them quite a bit.
