Miles of stockinette. Three rows to think about between the cast on and the decreases. I can’t say enough about the Midas Hat as COVID-19 knitting. The yarn is deep stash, probably about 10 years old, and I’m fairly certain it is Mad Tosh.
Were you able to finish anything this week?
That’s a great hat!
I finally forced myself to knit tonight. A few more rows and the first sock will be done:)

That is great news! Sometimes I need to make myself sit down and knit for 10 minutes to get my mojo back. I’m not sure if that works when I’m stuck at home though….

Hat looks great. I just cast on a Sockhead Hat for the same reasons you state. Sometimes, I just have to sit outside and let my hands and mind wander.

How is your hat coming along? Are you past all of the rib yet?

I am past the rib and well into the stockinette. That’s because we binge watched Star Trek Saturday. I like the rhythm of the ribbing. I’m weird, I know.

Yes, it is great to not have those poor socks looking at me! I am having trouble keeping my hands off of Orkney, just too easy to want to try the next row, color, etc. UFDA!

The colours suit you very well. I haven’t knit in days, but I finished weeding my veg and fruit borders yesterday. 🙂

Hi. Nice hat!
I’m working on a pair of socks, from a kit I sell) during the day. DK blankets for dogs in rescue kennels during the evening.
Trying to resist the urge to cast-on ‘all the things’ 😁

Finished the baby sweater for my son, what a time to be having a baby. I don’t have a lot of energy for it one because I don’t know what gender and two because I have one ball of yarn & the rest is down in the basement craft room of which I’m cut off from due to a I’ll timed kitchen renovation. I’m losing my mind here.
