real world avalanche

I’ve been swamped at work, and when that happens, posting to the blog suffers.  There will be some new pictures up, and maybe some site rennovation this weekend becase it is supposed to blizzard here again on Sunday.

Two nights of knitting have yielded mucho sleeve progress on the airy-wrap around.  If I could knit through lunch today, I’d be started on the front.

My husband has been working on his own website content, and even has some ideas on a theme, so maybe I’ll be working on that this weekend.

Oh, and maybe band practice.  Did I mention it is supposed to blizzard?  Maybe I should make soup instead.

I’ll leave you with a newly-posted pic of Jackson’s Beer Can hat.  Itended up being very1997 cat-in-the-hat-ish.  I crocheted it out of the dreaded Red Heart Acrylic.  The super-high-skill level/super-lazy writing pattern:

1. HDC around each can panel (Jackson cut the holes). RED

2. HDC all of the panels together. WHITE

3. HDC once around the top and bottom of the panel band. WHITE

4. on the topside, HDC around and around alternating colors and subjectively decreasing.

5. on the brim, HDC around in RED, subjectively increasing.

He wanted one in Green Bay colors too. If I were to make one, I’d use 5 panels instead of 6 so the hat wasn’t so big, maybe put some sort of elasticity in there.
