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.

I got tired of trying to find a group for a SnB on the weekends, so I created one at Meetup.com. I really hope I can find some people to knit with. I just can’t do the weekday SnB’s because of hubby’s work schedule.

I went to the LYS and bought some Cascade 220 for a hat for my son then when I got home I couldn’t find my copy of Knit Hats! I have looked all over the house and can’t find it!! It is driving me crazy, I wanted to make the ‘Hat 3 Ways’ with the ear flaps and attempt some simple faire isle. grrrrrrrr
If anyone knows where I put it, please, let me know. *vbg*

You are a warm and fuzzy type who works well with
others, doing your share without being too
weighty. You can be stubborn and absolutely
refuse to change your position once it is set,
but that’s okay since you are good at covering
up your mistakes.
What kind of yarn are you?
