It's like the squirrel apocalypse out there. I saw a squirrel come out of an oak with a walnut. I'm not asking questions. Just staying inside with my new slippers and knitting.
The pattern is Sockhead Hat. Yes, again.
The yarn is Beyond from Invictus Yarns over at etsy. It's a merino/cashmere/nylon sock yarn that is amazing. Colorway is Sweet Clementine. Love it!
I am not done knitting socks. I just needed a bit of a break. Yes, I know that doesn't make sense. Just nod and smile.
Still slowly spinning my way through a Bullseye Bump from Loop. Pondering sweater patterns while fighting the desire to buy more yarn, and really hoping that the squirrels don't figure out how many nuts they could hide inside the house if they could figure out how to get in.
Tomorrow and most likely into the weekend, I'll be celebrating a year of freedom from the judgiest of judgy pants. You never realize just how bad something was until you're free of the abuse and get their hate and judgements out of your head. Happy and relaxed is nice. Who knew?
What are all y'all doing this weekend?
That yarn is gorgeous!
You mean the squirrels haven't gathered all the nuts yet?

Happy anniversary. That project is a lovely color.

I'm wondering if the 2 squirrels that hang out on my deck, where I've put a feeder for them, are going to ask to come in once it starts snowing!

I just came to check on you and you're here! Weekend involves painting and sewing. Yes, you did read that correctly. Love the color and look of that yarn!

Squirrelpocalypse does NOT sound like my cup of tea. Oooh! Tea!

Don't you think a year celebration is a reason for some new fiber?
Sorry, couldn't help myself. I'm an expert at enabling.

The slippers look perfect! Warm and cozy. Love the hat-to-be. Great color.
Must be the year of the squirrel. They are taking over our town! They come right up to the patio door. Yea, we keep that door locked! O.0

Socks for your head, socks for your feet. Hurray for socks!
Just promise you won't start knitting socks for the squirrels...

And a state of happiness. Coincidence? I think not.

Congratulations. Freedom from judging is good.

Hooray for your judgy pants freedom! Everyone deserves to be happy. Loving the hat- I knit one last month, my first FO in probably a year. Looking at the stash and my current clothing lineup, more may be in store,
