I wrote an entry, then left for lunch and returned to publish, but I didn’t think to back it up. I hit “publish” and was prompted to login. The internet ate my entry and now I have to start over!
The jist of it is I’ve been either too sleepy or nauseated to do much of anything, the past month or so. I’ve reached 16 weeks in my pregnancy and I’m finally starting to feel human again. The week before Thanksgiving I actually decided to start knitting again! I went with an oldy but a goody–Ganomy.
I first knit it in January. I made it for Nathan out of a single ball of Noro Kureyon. It got some good use, even being worn on an unusually (for Houston!) cool Easter.
Unfortunately, I LOST this amazing hat and so my Nathan needed a new one. I didn’t have any Noro in my yarn stash, so I chose a random ball of Cascade 220.
Pattern: Ganomy from The Knitter’s Almanac by Elizabeth ZimmermannYarn: Cascade 220 in Straw
Needles: 16″ US8 circular
Modifications: I changed the cast-on to 98sts and had to adjust the decreases accordingly, so I wouldn’t end up with an insanely long hat.
Of course, I love it. it’s floppy and wonderful. I don’t have any good action shots because apparently posing is just not cool for 2 and half year-olds. *sad mommy face*
