happy friday, everyone! guess what i'm doing today? thanks to ecm, i'm...
 growing grass!
ok, knews:
1. habitat books knit group is actually called knitting bee. it's abuzzing again
for $5 per person. the last three had been cancelled for political reasons like
the conventions+debates.
2. rachael at yarnagogo is holding a knit out in berkeley this sunday. if jg's gramp
wasn't coming to town, i'd be there.
3. messy haired babe took the seamless garter stitch beanie pattern and ran with
it. she wrote up the entire shpiel in one email, giving total logic to the fiasco i
sketched. we're fast becoming a double threat.
4. q bean sent me some yarn she got while she was back in australia. look what
i did with the fat orange wool blend.
i was aiming for the hershey's kisses effect. jg called it a giant nipple. who
better to model it? anyway, maura would be pleased to know that i learned to
use two circular needles to knit this hat. and mastered it!
socks? bring it on!
5. remember this?
 ribbit*
has anyone tried making this beanie? i'm going for the knitted version this
weekend. the legs and toes will have to be icorded. the eyes are a bit tricky.
we'll see.
* for better luck, i'm trying "ribbit ribbit" for november first.
