Knit, two, unfurl one

Wait, how did it get this late and I didn’t even blog yet?

Oh. Right. I was finally knitting, for the first time in over a week, after the needles grabbed me and just would not let me go. Sorry that that Eco Duo hat came out really too small for you, Dear (it did, didn’t it?) I’ll just have to make you another (pardon me while I wear it to Costco. ‘Cause, you know, it fits me like that. There are advantages to being 15″ shorter than he is.)

And then I dove into a project that I hadn’t quite finished on the plane ride home from Texas. As I worked I decided that no, I’m going to make it bigger than I’d planned–so it is, once again, four rows from being done, only this time those four rows are going to get done pronto.

It felt so good to have yarn working its way through my fingers again. With family time too!

Somehow I didn’t realize the relationship between height and head size. **smile**

And with enough health for everyone to enjoy it? I couldn’t wish you all more happiness! 🙂

Susan’s comment gave me an imaginary picture of a very tall person with a very small head. Ridiculous!

Oh, yes. The almost done, wait, no, not yet almost done conundrum. I’ve got a sweater in that stage. I thought I’d finished the sleeves, but they’re way too long….bad pattern. So, frogged and ready to reknit after a bit of rest. Wishing you all a happy and healthy new year! We three came down with colds Friday night, so the new year has to be better!

I haven’t knit for a week, either! Today, though a pal (of 32 years!) is here for a visit, and I taught her to make hairpin lace and broomstick lace :-}
We had SO MUCH FUN! I dearly miss having friends nearby :-}
She lives not quite 2 hours away, but has no car, so Oscar provided transportation. We decided we will try and do this 4 times a year :-}

Happy New Year!

Head and height are just one consideration. I actually have a small-to-average head, but my ears either hang low or I’m insanely picky (both) because hats are rarely long enough to suit me. I want the WHOLE earlobe covered, and securely so!!
