I finally finished some cabled socks I’ve been working on. This has been one of those projects … I don’t particularly like the yarn and started and stopped a couple of projects using it. But for some strange reason had a “need” to do something with it. Well, I now have a pair of socks I don’t love. So it goes. The learning (which isn’t a new learning of course) is that some projects probably really are not worth the effort. But now I can move on to other things!

I miss knitting. I don't get that many chances to knit these days, what with the whole baby thing and all. Especially now that I've gone back to work. I used to be able to take Eva out to a coffee shop during her nap time and the stroller would work its magic and put her into a deep sleep, and I would knit. Not these days; the world is far too fascinating a place for miss Eva!
Eva gives with one hand and takes away with the other, however. She's now moved her bedtime back from 10pm to 8pm, so I suddenly have some time in the evening! And I managed to sneak away from the house today and get to my knitting group. The result of all this? A Finished Object!
This is my version of Eva's hat. I made the large size, which was the only size my mom hadn't made. Now that we've made all the sizes, the pattern is almost ready to go up in our DIY section. We just need to make a couple of tweaks and then it'll be up. Hooray!
