Pumpkin Hat

This is the latest hat I have completed for William. The pattern is available free from About.com and it is called “pumpkin hat”. He is due to arrive this week sometime. If he decides not to show up they will induce labor on Friday, September 23, 2005. Isn’t it cute?

Prayer Cloth Completed and Other Stuff

Today I mailed off another prayer cloth. I knitted this one in the bee stitch which is not a very common stitch used today.

The pattern is:
Row 1 – K
Row 2 – K1, K1 below
Row 3 – P1, K to last stitch, P1
Row 4 – K1, {K1, K1 below}, repeat {} to last stitch, K1

Here is the result:

Today I started knitting another pair of socks. I dislike starting socks. Needless to say, i went two rounds in one direction and then reversed course and went the other direction. Time to frog a bit.

On a brighter note, I am going to be a grandmother. My birthday is this weekend and I am going to be 39. My son informed me a while back that I am going to be a grandmother. This is the first time I can put it in public though because not everyone knew. Today we found out that it is going to be a boy. Everyone knows now so it is time to start thinking about how to spoil him.
