gobble gobble

I'm going all trans-continental again this afternoon. Didn't I just get off a plane from the west coast? No - truth be told, i hardly ever tire of going west, and I'm definitely in need of a few days to relax, knit, and gorge. (Aren't we all?)

I'll be back Monday - I hope you all have a wooly holiday. I'll leave you with a preview of a little somethin'-somethin' thats fresh off my needles.

Telemark Hat Preview

Its a product of these, and perfect timing too - I really need something to keep my ears warm these days. I'll post 'officially' when I get back. If I'm really in a good mood, I might even make up a pattern for it (no promises, though).

Happy Thanksgiving one and all

  32. I love hats that have that type of decreasing on top that forms a pattern. Makes the top looks so "finished".

  42. A guy who knits. Difficult projects (and successfully completes them). With very even stitches. And who comes up with pretty cute designs of his own. You know, somehow this bugs me as a female knitter. :D Just kidding. By the way, what camera are you using?
