Autumn fit

Discovering that my brother is expecting his second bundle of joy, I have a legitimate reason to knit again. Yaaaaaaaaaah! I picked out some yarn with my friend (he's a good friend to be so patient as to pick out yarn with me and give me opinions as a non-knitter!) and got started. At around the same time, the weather cooled down, and that was it. I'm well into another fit of knitting.

I started the blanket. I am 10% of the way done with it after 3 days. My friend expressed that he's been wanting a hat, and hey! suddenly I have yarn for a hat. (Maybe a halfdome variant.) I also have knit a coffee cup cozy, because when I start knitting I am crazy. And believe me, I have looked at every free hat and coffee cozy pattern available on the web before starting, and looked up every technique listed on each of those patterns. Really now. I'm sick.

I have nothing to show you yet, but soon I will. I do have to get my camera fixed first. In any case, reading my last entry I realize that I owe you all a pic:



Hee hee hee! No, I don't mind that the bunny is getting mauled a bit. The whole idea was to make a toy for the child to enjoy. Here's a better picture of the finished object.



Cute kid, eh?
