The hat is finished! Yeah!! It even looks cool and fits! I used a pattern from The Knit Stitch book (lots of great patterns in that book and I love the meditations!)

I went to Dagmar's Yarn Shop yesterday and picked up some yummy soft purple/eggplant-y yarn to make a ChicKami So far I am only on the 3rd round, but I think once I get going it will cruise right along. This weekend we are going to be taking a major trip (from CT) to Virginia. Hopefully, if the kids will let me, I will be able to do a lot of knitting while sitting in the passanger's seat.

In other news, there is actual progress on our house! They are now working on the back getting it ready for the new siding. Eventually, I will get some more pictures up so you can see the huge difference.
