chunky knit beanie

martha sent our knitting group a friend to knit with’s chunky knit beanie. since i’m hating my sweater (yes, i said i’d be done by the end of january, but i’m not), i jumped on the chance to knit something else.
and yay! i got to meet another local blogger: i knew that jesse of fifth lamp down works at a local yarn shop, so i sent her a note asking when she’d be there so i could meet her while picking up some big wool for my beanie. i met her there that night, and we chatted for a good 30 minutes. it was so fun to meeet her!

Yeah! It looks great. I finished mine but am going to rip it out due to a little error that’s driving me nuts. Poo!

Love the beanie. Love the colours. My inner kid is dying to photoshop some eyes at the moment.
Meanie time, finish the darn jumper!! Just like I give you fixes of warmth and sunshine, you give me my cold. I so miss wearing jumpers…
