You got a problem with that?

I just frogged a Shedir I started about a year ago and I heartily concur. Fiddly knit. It's so pretty but too much of a pain to knit and compared to some of my other hats, not all that warm. I love your Koolhass though!</p> Oh, all of you people making those lovely mitts are like sirens calling me to cast on! gah! I just frogged a Shedir I started about a year ago and I heartily concur.

I wish it were cold enough here to wear either... </p> <p>Good luck with the thesis. It'll be a roller coaster, for sure, but you'll feel so great when you're done!!</p> Great hats and mittens!

Good luck with the thesis. It’ll be a roller coaster, for sure, but you’ll feel so great when you’re done!!

I love the mittens. Stranded mitts seem to be on a lot of needles these days and I'd love to get some on mine too! It is funny how friendships develop sometimes.</p> Great knits! I love the mittens.

You know, whenever I look at the semi-solid Malabrigo, I think of you. It reminds me of your dye style. I think you can give them a run for their money, Adam.</p> The hats all look fabulous!
