A second sleeve and a lazy hot toddy because I have a cough
My niece (3) asked for a pink sweater and the distraction was more than welcome. Cheers, friends.

Upsetting week - frogged an entire baby blanket
Took my Tuesday frustration out on a nearly finished baby blanket. Frogged it and decided to start over with a completely different pattern and a glass of Cab. Happy Friday Drunken knitting friends!

Got to wear my hat from last year today!
I hate the cold and I’m already sick of it (first day it’s been cold enough for a hat - I’m a wimp). But I did smile when I put the hat on! Makes me excited for this year’s exchange!
Happy knitting all!

Already tipsy from my election depression drink, now straight vodka at the airport and knitting a cowl for my 2yo son
Title says it all. Made myself a double in a water bottle for the Uber to the airport, and keeping up with straight vodka now that I’m here. This will be the baby bear balaclava, and the 3rd I’ve made. This is seriously the BEST for kids. It keeps their head, ears, and neck warm while simultaneously being harder for them to pull off. I’ll link in the comments

Cropped cardigan and huckleberry hard cider
Started working on this little cropped cardigan from my handspun a few days ago. With kiddos in bed, it’s the perfect time for a drink, a show, and simple knitting

One color brioche can be done with a buzz.

Does it count as working on the same hat if I’ve frogged it four times since my last post?
