Time for me to catch up again. I actually have knitting to share!
This hat is a gift for a friend of my daughter who will be working at a ski resort this winter. I wanted to make this hat extra warm, so it has an inner headband to keep his ears extra warm.
My son, the model, loves the hat, so I guess I will be making another one for him. I didn't want to simply braid the i-cords on this hat, so the tails are tied in macrame style knots.
X marks the spot on top.
The yarn is Ironstone Yarns ColorChanges in Colorway 003 and it lends itself perfectly to this hat since most of it is simple Stockinette Stitch.
We haven't had our first killing frost yet, but it is supposed to happen this week.
So I pulled all the tomatoes and peppers off the vines -- I think there are almost 15 gallons of mostly green tomatoes. I'm thinking salsa... and this is just one of many reasons that I won't get much knitting done this week.
And finally, just a little reminder that the season really is changing, and even my cactus is rushing the holidays.
I hope all are well and that knitting is soothing hectic days.
