i made something!

yes, there has been knitting going on. i just get too lazy to blog about it most of the time. however, i do have a lovely hat i finished over the holidays. it's brooklyntweed's habitat made from my favorite yarn, mmmalabrigo.

pattern: habitat by brooklyntweed (my ravelry page here)
yarn: almost and entire skein of malabrigo merino worsted in azul bolita
needles: us 6 for ribbing and us 5 for rest of hat
size: i made the longer size so it would cover my ears. fits well on my 21" head.

i highly recommend this pattern. the cables are lovely and everything is clearly written and charted out for you. i am getting better at taking pics of myself in hats. i like to see hats on a person but it's hard taking a picture of yourself in one when you have short arms and no tripod. but i think i am getting better at it. i only had to take about 30 shots for this to work out. :)

has anyone watched the premiere of lost yet? i wasn't feeling well last night so i skipped it but am hoping to catch up this weekend. i have no idea what's going to happen but i think it's going to be good. and yay for tomorrow being friday.
