legalmooseAfter a marathon evening of knitting, I'm done with K's hat:
If I had to do bits of row 77 over again, I was going to scream. Actually, I did scream. Not too loud, didn't want to scare the neighbors, but OMG I hate, hate, hate purl-2-together-through-the-back-loop now. I mean, nice effect, but given how tight a knitter I am, I kept having the damned stitches slip off the right needle while trying to get the thing through the back loop. Now that it's done, I'm glad I picked the pattern - it was challenging, but not impossible.
For once being a tight knitter paid off - I finished it in one skein, no additional yarn needed. So glad it's done now; hope she likes it, and gets back to work soon to tell me about it.
