Isn't it gorgeous? The hat, not the kid. Well yeah the kid too. This is his "badass" look. Or as I like to call it his sulky, I just woke up, teenager look. He used to get paid $125 an hour to do this so I guess I should consider myself lucky that he didn't charge me. Back to the hat. It's the same one I had made from Cascade Heritage but the last one came out too small and went to my younger son. This is Trekking Hand Art and the colorway is called Ireland. Appropriate for the freckle face kid no? I think I purchased on Rav from someone destashing but I'm not quite sure. Here's another look:
This is a great tv knit. It was all knit while sitting and watching television with the family in the evenings. Four inches of rib then nine inches of stockinette. Does it get any easier?I'm currently working on another pair of Laizy Maizy socks in Mama Lllama yarn in the Bella colorway, which is gorgeous. It's very fall looking with green, yellow, pumpkin, orange and brown in there. The colors are soft and subdued and really autumnal. I'm going to be sorry when this project ends.
Seems the cooler weather has brought my knitting mojo back. Yay!

I love it! Trekking makes some very cool yarns. I just got a skein of variegated graphite sock yarn from knitpicks that I think will look good for it, too. Can I ask - how is the top of the hat shaped? It's hard to tell.
Cute hat. And I recognize the expression; I see it on a daily basis...
Very nice hat - and love the expression - I see that one too!
Love the pose. Love the hat. Love the kid! I didn't know you had Mama Llama. I have some too! whoo hoo!
But I need to see the eye doctor before I even attempt to knit one more stitch at a small gauge!
You knitting mojo is DEFINITELY back! YAY!!!
