Finished the Beanie

I finished it. Saturday.  And promptly gave it to my father, as I had been knitting it at his house. 

It wasn't a birthday present even though he had a birthday last Monday (his 80th). It wasn't for anything, really, other than when he modeled middle nephew's beanie for the blog, I promised him I'd make him one, too. 

And now, I am once again between projects (other than the reluctant sweater which I still haven't managed to start).

  2. Looks warm; I think your father will enjoy wearing it. And about that reluctant sweater, I think the Universe is trying to tell you something.

    1. But I am way more stubborn and will ignore the Universe until I get that thing going.

  4. Nice! I expect he quickly removed it to cool his nearly-summer heated head! He'll wear it, it looks good!

    1. It was actually kind of chilly at that moment, but yeah, he didn't wear it long.
