Last night I cast on a Pollen Hat in leftover Manos to use for the rest of the Andrea Mowry KAL. Unfortunately it was too addictive, so I’ve already completed the hat. I did one less repeat than called for in the pattern, as I am nor comfortable with super slouchy hats (I don’t know many people over 40 who are). I am not looking forward to the weather being cold enough to need a wool hat.

I’ve decided to start a Weekender for the rest of the KAL. It is unlikely I’ll finish a sweater before our next meeting in a week.
Cute hat!

I need something addicting to knit. I think I might be addicted to stockinette. Weekender has been on my radar for a while.

You should make a Weekender with me. I’m going to try to finish it for Thanksgiving.

You are ambitious! That’s just what I need. Another sweater! 😆 I just posted on someone else’s blog that I might knit a dishcloth for each of our kids for Christmas. (7) Hmm… dishcloths for people who probably aren’t knitworthy or another sweater for me? I will think about it. What yarn are you using?

Cascade Venezia Worsted 70% Merino 30% Silk. It was on clearance and I’m a sucker for a good yarn sale.

OMG a worsted mostly stockinette sweater! I think I may be hooked. I wonder if I can get away with DK for this?

I bet you could. It is worth a shot.

I think I might invest in some worsted in green. I’ve gotta hankering for a green sweater.

Very cool hat! I’m also not looking forward to weather cold enough to need a hat, but at least they’re fun to knit!

I wonder what exactly makes a knitting pattern addictive. I started something last week and I just can’t put it down!

I’m really going to miss the summer, although it was too hot for me today.
