2.25 and 3mm needles
Some random blue-ish sock yarn with some tencel in it. No label. Came from the box of the semi-known.
Still love knitting the pattern Still think it's a wonderful mostly mindless knit.
Not much more to say really. It's a hat. Ya know?
In other news, it's windy, cold and cranky here. This is slightly better than the warmish and ragey we had earlier in the week, but I'm still hoping for better and being thankful for the good stuff. Like being able to open up on faceyspace because I just can't here. Perhaps one day I'll reclaim this space but not right now. I've gotten enough crap already. Better to limit who knows what and be thankful that no one's husband has called me.
Yet.
Yeah...
Speaking of people who need better hobbies, I need to go finish a scarf that can be seen from space before I decide to fake my own death to get away from it. I can see doing that for a sweater but doing it for a scarf seems like giving in and letting the scarf win. We can't have that.
Oh!
Saw this out and about and thought of our Kym for some reason. I love this idea, and can see doing versions of this year round. With my sugar recipe, of course. Would be nice to use all those slightly weird tiny cookie cutters.
Happy Friday, people!
Oh, I LOVE the little tiny cookies! Just adorable. (And I already have a tiny little gingerbread man cookie cutter, too.)
The hat is beautiful in blue.
And XOXOXOXO to you.

To darling to eat. Love the hat. I agree about the scarf. The only excuse to not finish is impending blindness from searing colors. Hugs, hunny!!!!!

The hat is super. It looks so cuddly!
The cookies are too adorable. And of course you would think of Kym. She our official gingerbread house decorator!
Don't let that scarf win!

The hat is gorgeous! The yarn is lovely.
The scarf mustn't win! You can beat it I'm sure:)

I didn't know you were a diva in the kitchen!

I love the hat! Just my color. And goodness knows it's cold enough for hats here in the Great White North.
The cookies look delish. But I don't have the knack for baking, so I'll just admire the photo. :)
Happy Weekend!

That hat is just beautiful. And the cookies (all of them) are adorable! Glad things have warmed up and simmered down a bit. Happy Friday to you my friend!

Those cookies are waaaaay cute. The chances of my ever making them are pretty tiny, though. The gift-wrapped package ones have a much better chance, which isn't saying much.

That is a gingerbread -- or sugar cookie? -- house even I could build start to finish before I got bored/frustrated and broke out the wine.

Oh I love baking, and those are some of the cutest cookies I've seen in a while (and believe me, I've been up to my ears in flour and Pinterest pins!). Love the hat and how the variegation in the yarn didn't make odd pooling or stripes. Very cozy for crazypants weather!

That wee house is so sweet I am now a diabetic!

Well, I bookmarked the cookie recipe. Like I'll ever have time to make them...
Love that hat!

That is indeed a super cute hat! Just the right amount of slouch, which is the art of hat knitting in my opinion.

We're in the middle of a 70 degree couple of days. In December. It was a sucky way to try to bake cookies from dough that you have to handle. I want my winter back.
I have tiny little cookie people cutters. And dinosaurs and ninjas and trains and cows and mooses. Because who doesn't have a Christmas Cow?
