I finished knitting my Melt the Ice hat and wore it yesterday. Paul was asked to talk about Montpelier's past clothespin industry by the Channel 5 News, and I went along for moral support. The reporter and camera man were very sweet and it all went well. Except it was mighty cold mostly due to the strong wind. I normally don't wear a hat, making my hair do the work, but I think I should start to wear this one in order to "make a statement."
You can't see the tassel on top in the photo, but it's there. I started knitting a bright red one on slightly bigger needles for someone, maybe my sister who has a birthday coming up.
Yesterday I started sewing all the Kaffe and Tula fabrics that I cut out Wednesday, and today I have 16 12" blocks to put together. I like the way it looks but plan to enlarge it with some borders. The first will be a think black one, and then there will be a colorful one using scraps of block fabric.
Right now, I'm calling this Out of My Comfort Zone, but I do like it quite a bit. And it was embarrassingly easy.
