Can You Stand Two More?
Make that four more.
I made two more baby hats yesterday for Baby Threads. I brought all four of them to choir practice last night, but my contact with the org. wasn't there. Rats rizzo. I bet I can whip out a few more before the weekend, though.
In my own defense, these are a really fast knit. Really. It's bulky weight Encore, 75% acrylic, 25% wool. On size 9 needles. And these little ones are only 50 stitches around. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
I was sure for a bit there that I was burned out on knitting. None of my projects were calling to me when last I posted, so I decided to spin for a bit and see what became of it.
Then I sat down in my chair and the Encore Chunky called to me again. Who am I to ignore the siren song of charity knitting?
So I whipped out two more of them.

But really, now I'm going to go do some spinning. I'll start with the rougher wool in the funky green color to get warmed up before attempting the more delightful merino and merino/silk lovelies.
Or I might make some more hats. Who knows?

Oh my god, I'm totally in love with that shagadelic blue and pink top hat one. You almost make me want to have another kid! Hmmmm...yeah well not when I have to remember where that head has to go before it can wear that hat!
Yes, we can! They're fabulous. Heck, I'd wear that blue and pink number myself.
Those are too cool. So non traditional. So cutting edge.
I can't wait to see what you spin with the fluff you bought from the festival.
