Another Stall


 I interrupted the cursed vest knitting to make this little hat!  Isn't it just so sweet!?
I used yarn on hand in DK weight on #3 needles, the pattern is the Striped Aviator by Linda Whaley.
This is the 1-2yr size.  (Little Ethan needs his ears covered in this morning chill lately!)
I was all set in bed to knit on this vest when Stormy crawled up for a snooze so I couldn't interrupt her, right?!
I am making headway on the vest, though;  I am knitting around the armholes in rib.   I hope to have it off the needles tomorrow and onto the blocking board Monday!!!!
Bill and I put the glass doors on the fireplace finally.....
these things take time, you know!
Now it isn't smokey or too hot in the house when we burn it to take the chill out of the morning or evening!

    That little aviator cap is so cute. Love the colors you chose.
