No photos yet. My SD card reader on my laptop seems to fail to work, and I cannot find the USB connector for the camera. Thus, the photos are helplessly trapped on the camera until further notice.

The good news? Ninja Boyfriend has the same laptop as me, and thus the same card reader. I shall ninja the card reader later and post photos then.

I finished the monster kitty baby hat, which didn’t take long at all. It was loosely based on the Bunny Hat from SnB Nation, with edits to initially make it a little monster. When I was done, however, the ears and style made it look like a cat. So I added a little cat face. It’s cute, and I love it.

Work on the Boogie vest goes smoothly, if not slightly boring. I’m glad I kept the yet-to-be-unraveled sleeves, because I may need more yarn than I thought. I have four big hanks right now, and I’m just starting on the second ball, with only 5 of the 15 inches of the back side finished. The yarn is soft and nice to knit with, and I have two blousesit will go well with, which is important!

I configured the Monkey sock pattern to have some extra stitches, two extra rows of pattern and a bigger heel area. I started working on it last night, and already I hit a small snag in the pattern and had to unravel. My own dumb fault of not remembering the tricks of the pattern. I fixed and am moving on it.

I need to start another baby project. I’m thinking a toy or two, to use up some of my cotton scraps and skeins. I have Kath Dalmeny’s World of Knitted Toys, and Jenn Hutchison’s Unusual Toys For You To Knit And Enjoy, so I have a good selection to choose from.
