Knitting ...

"Can you knit me this hat, Mom?" Sure, no problem - apart from the type and colours of wool on hand.
With Icelanic (Lopi) wool and 5mm needles, cast on 88 in the contrast, k2 p2 alternating colours every 2 rounds, decrease at 8 places, as shown. Then make another, and another... and a beret or two ...This week I've been obsessed with knitting hats, and watched a lot of tv while doing so. And read -- the book has to stay open on its own; knitting doesn't always need a lot of attention, but it does need two hands.
