Finished: Elijah Hat

I'm sure nobody really remembers, but this hat that I started for my uncle ages ago? I finally finished it a few weeks ago! It took me ages because I kept making silly mistakes that involved taking things apart so I could knit them over. And this happened several times. But I'm pleased with the finished product, and overall, it was a simple enough pattern to knit with a nice effect!

 

I'm keen to start another project, but while I have a few things I'd like to try (and a few things I said I'd do for people) I haven't bought any more yarn yet. Soon, though!

Since the previous post.

Still just hanging out in Bellingham at the moment. Reading cookbooks, cleaning brush out of the fence line, that sort of thing. I'm getting better at knowing where things are and how to get there, but alas! I am still without wheels. So it's rather useless knowledge!

Toni's friend is going to be visiting this coming week, so that should be pretty exciting. Other than that, the last two weekends have been the Whatcom Artists Studio Tour. I won't even be close to visiting them all, but the few I've seen have been pretty fantastic. (Today I learned that Bellingham is second, after Santa Fe, in terms of numbers of artists per capita. That's the excitement for now!

a)Hiking in the rain. It rains often here, but not quite yet. At least I won't have to deal with copious amounts of snow and subzero temps!
b)Fairhaven at night.
c)Birthday cake. I'm laughing because all of my photos from my birthday involve me in my pajamas for some reason.
d)Mt. Baker.
