After supper last night I cast on Bib #3; today the I-cord ties will appear, not exactly magically, but it seems like a bit of a magic trick to make them.
I'm working to translate the Meathead Hat pattern from knitted flat to knit in the round. (I do love my DPNs!) So naturally I made the supreme sacrifice and bought some of this yarn in 2 shades of Bulky red to make myself a hat. It's purely experimental. I'm sure you understand.
One of the brooches I bought for $.99 at Goodwill yesterday found a home immediately. Remember the BIG Amazon Hat that I embellished with the giant floppy pompon? Well, I thought it still needed something. Turned out what it needed was a blue rhinestone brooch. Now it's done.
Durwood commented as he posed for me, "See? I am good for something when I'm home all the time." Yes, dear.
P.S. I forgot! I've done a bit more stealth knitting. See?

Happy Birthday, Barbara, and Mama Barbara! My birthday is this week, also. I want that dessert.
I really think that hat needs some tinsel.

Very subtle note, Mom! I'll try to be better about leaving comments.
The hat is fabulous. And Dad looks lovely in it.
I just got back from seeing Kirsten's new baby--I can't wait until he's big enough for the bibs I made him! These might have to become my standard baby gift from now on.
