Zach's Hat and a post full of ghosts (and Happy Dishrag Tag Days)

By -

Zach's hat is in the mail to him. He prefers the snowboarder style, whereby the hat slouches a bit in the back. I give the Knitpicks yarn an A plus. It was so soft and refused to split.
Fireman even said he wants one......we'll see...... if he's lucky...maybe....

The ghosts are on the posts and we are readying for October fun all month long. Now that I have a black cat, I feel even more ready to celebrate!! Do you know that shelters are full of black cats and people do awful things to black cats? My shelter gives out a list of 10 reasons to adopt a black cat....I'll add one:
Because my little black cat is the funniest thing that's been in this house in a long while....


I WOULD LOVE YOU TO LEAVE A COMMENT>

Great-looking hat!

Other than the flag in front of my house, I don't decorate for Fall/Autumn or Halloween.

Great hat! I don't decorate. I do need to put out "fresh" flags in the boys' garden...

You did a super job with that hat! You must knit one for Fireman.

Love your ghosts!

I can't stand the thought of anyone being mean to a cat or dog. I can't even watch those commercials for the SPCA. The precious little dog faces make me cry.

I love black kitties!!! Yes ppl do bad things to them. I had three once and they all found me! Used to keep them in on Halloween because I didn't want anybody doing anything bad to them. Same on Fourth of July.

LOVE that hat too!!! May have to make one myself. Where did you find the pattern?

It was a modified simple ann norling hat. I did cast on 88 stitches and worked a 2x2 rib for the whole first skein. Then I worked several inches in stockinette and worked the decreases as Ann norling states . I wanted a large rib to fold over and be doubly warm.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
