I finally bit the bullet and went and got my hair cut. Hubby gave me a gift card to a shee-shee salon last Valentine’s Day and I finally used it. My hair was down to my mid back this morning now it barely reaches my chin in the front and the back is much shorter. I really like it, but then again it is just hair and it would grow back if I didn’t. The stylist put my hair into a ponytail and cut it off so my hair could be donated to Locks of Love at my request. Hubby was not very happy about me going to get my hair cut but he really liked it when I got home.

I finally broke down and bought a new copy of Knit Hats! which guarantees I will find it in the next hour. I also picked up two sets of circular needle to knit my son’s hat. It seems with all the needles I have I shouldn’t need to get any more, but it seems like every new pattern I start I need a differnt size of needles. I need to sew up a needle case or two, one for straight needles, one for circulars and one for double points, I guess that’s three.
I’m also going to be making another pattern from Knit Hats!, Handpaint Hat. I chose a skein of Plymouth Yarns Yukon Print (I just couldn’t justify the cost of the Point 5 right now) and a skein of Cascade 220 (it coordinates amazingly well but I’ll have to use multiple strands)
I am getting together a little learn to knit knit for my daughter, so I picked up a very cute Inox knitting knody (looks like a little girl) and some bamboo knitting needles for her. I’m not sure if I will give the kit to her for Hanukkah or for her b’day (Jan 5th).
My Hubby is a big fan of Wallace & Gromit so when I saw a copy of Feng Shaun at the yarn shop I had to pick it up for him. Ok, maybe a little bit for me too. *vbg*

I just signed up for a “1st Sweater Knitalong” over at Knitting Solo. I am already in the middle of my first sweater, a pullover for my son. I also want to knit a cardi for my daughter, and that will be my first cardi.
