Yes... I was a very good girl and got R2 off the needles, as promised.
It still needs buttons, and about a hundred ends sewn in, but I'm still calling it finished. I'll pick up some buttons on payday and get the rest done, then deliver it to the little guy.
I got quite a bit of dyeing done this weekend - 24 skeins with some Continental Cat, Fat Cat and Twisted Slinky. And when I wasn't turning my hands different colours, I was knitting my hat.
I've knit like a fiend on this one, but it's still very slow going for a hat. The combination of fine yarn and 2mm needle (yep - not 2.5 or 2.75 - but 2.00!!!) make for a very slow knit. And as much as I really want to keep working on this, there's one project that's making me feel guilty about it.
Sigh....So much to knit... so little time!
