pants!

Here are some denim pants I knitted using a pattern from Joelle Hoverson's Last-Minute Knitted Gifts. They're for my sister's second child (who is due in September or October, I believe).

The yarn is Rowan Denim; I got it on sale at A Stitch Above's going out of business sale. The colors are, um, 'Nashville', I guess, which seems to be the moral equivalent of navy blue, and black. I think I ended up using about 2 1/2 skeins.

I finished the baby pants I'm making for my friend Sarah Karush's baby. That was a quick little project! The pattern's from Joelle Hoverson's Last-Minute Knitted Gifts, which is a nifty little book although the title is a bit deceptive.

My next project is a hat (the 'almost-famous luggy bonnet' pattern by Lucy Mackenzie & Kirsteen Mitcalfe from Weekend Knitting) for the same baby. After lunch today I went to A Stitch Above with

restartsmyheart and picked up a bunch of merino for the hat:

restartsmyheart suggested that I should plan to make about fifty of these hats given the amount of yarn I got. Well, we'll see how much yarn is left over after I make the first one.

Actually, I have an Rcutj in Chemistry.

In other news, my new pants continue to make me happy. This is a little strange, because they are almost identical to my old pants, but I find it is best not to question these things.

Also, I invite people to suggest more amusing areas of study that I could have a fake degree in. Applied Comparative Literature? Organic Sociology? Comic Book Studies? You be the judge!
