my first blog-era FO XD!
I stayed home from work today (I've been intermittently dizzy all day, not really fun) and finished the second Hermione mitten. Yay! I don't have pics of it yet, not that there's any need since it's a mirror image of the first one. Now to block them and then take some pictures, and then they're ready to send. *And* if I'm not a lazy bum for once, I could get the pattern finished and posted sometime next week. Nag me, otherwise I'll let it slide like a certain sock pattern. :p
I also started, mostly out of boredom, on a hat using the leftover Silk Garden from my armwarmers. The bottom is 2x1 corrugated ribbing working from opposite ends of the ball -- it started out olive green and navy and will probably wind up turquoise/teal and purple. Noro pwns me! I doubt I have enough Silk Garden for the entire hat, so I'll probably switch to this ivory alpaca/silk I've had lying around after a nice wide band of ribbing. A crazy hat to go with my crazy coat!
Oh, and I reworked the top of the Ron hat so it doesn't suck. Pics soon -- all things considered I'm pretty happy with it, my sucky Fair Isle knitting aside.
