the project of 2009

Hey, look, I went to a conference and made a hat. I also made some fingerless mitts, but I have no pictures. You can imagine them - same cabling around the wrist, straight knit to the base of the fingers. The cabling was probably the most complicated I have ever done and was very satisfying.

I was even so nice as to knit a lining for the hat as it was way too thin to do any good without one. And I overestimated how much yarn it would take, per usual, only using 60% of what I bought. The yarn is pretty great - it comes from a sheep-llama-rabbit chimera - and I should really figure out what to do with the rest of it.
