Still Knitting :o)

I'm still knitting I just haven't written in a while.

I've finished 2 projects since I last wrote. I got my booga bag done, it came out smaller than I had expected but it turned out cute. I'll have to take a picture of it and post it. I used Manos Del Uruguay (Handspun and kettle-dyed over wood fires, no two skeins are exactly alike and there are no dyelots) yarn in Wildflower.


I also finished the baby hat I made for Andrew, my friend Brandy's baby. Funny store on the hat though. Brandy invited us over to their house for a small house warming/happy new baby party and I brought the hat over to give Andrew as a gift that day. I had not felted it yet because we don't have a top loading washer machine but Brandy does so I figured she could just felt it. I explained to her how to do it and she said she'd get it done :o) haa, haa. During the party little Ms. Emma, Brandy's 2 year old, got ahold of the hat and started wearing it. No biggie :o) I emailed Brandy later in the week to see if she'd felted the hat and she said NO :o( waaahhhttt? Emma loved the hat and wouldn't allow Brandy to take it from her, haa, haa. I now owe baby Andrew a new hat :o) darn, more knitting for me. I knit the hat all in Cascade 220. -


Currently on the Needles
The Asymmetrical Cable Hat from the One Skein book. I love this book, it has some great projects in it.


I am using Malabrigo in the Hollyhock color.

Very cute and perfect for TNT because it's a purply color. Is purply a word? I think I'll also knit one in green :o)
