Slow Going

Somehow, it takes a whole lot longer to knit a hat in fingering weight yarn than in worsted. Funny, that...

But progress is being made. I've got about an inch of the ribbing done.


Just a few more rounds, and I'll have to decide if I want to make a patterned hat, or just a plain stockinette hat. 

Wonder of wonders, we have the day off of work tomorrow.  It's the first Saturday we've had off since before Christmas.  I don't know what I'm going to do with myself.  I want to go up to Batesville and go shopping, but I really need to clean snake tanks.  Snow and Slider need a complete substrate change, but the rest can get by with just a spot cleaning.

Then there is the cat box....

Hmmm, Batesville is looking better and better.

Yeah, funny how that works. ;) The colorway is really coming out strongly, isn't it? I like it a lot, but it might drown out too much pattern. Just a little bit of texture, maybe? Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, too. I'll probably just go with something simple--plain stockinette, or garter rib or something like that.
