Half A Hat




You have heard of
a half a house.

Before you... you see
a half a hat knitted
by daughter #2.

I love the color sequence.
But then again, of course,
I would. We can go into
any store and come out
with the same purchase
on any given item

While Jenn zooms
away on her hat project
I am snared by the 2-in-1
sock puzzle.


Kudos please. 
I have the 2-in-1 stitches on
and they are knitted into
two separate layers
(one within the other).

Shush! 
The knitting goddess punishes braggarts.

I have learned that if you want to make anything
but the smallest size sock you need longer needles
(I'm using 6 inch double points). And it
would behoove the knitter to knit American style
with the right hand and Continental with the left.
A skill to be practiced another day...

We won't talk about the parameters
of putting in the heels. The day
is sufficient unto itself.

The Sassy One and daughter #2
are enjoying a knitting feast...
a binge if you will...
a very happy interlude.
