a knitting machine!

i started a new hat yesterday for a dear friend's birthday. and i finished it today. i used the slouchy copy cat hat pattern, but went down one needle size for the main part of the hat to limit the slouchiness. i LOVE the fake cables, and i think i need to make myself a sweater using this same stitch pattern. yes, indeed.

look! so pretty! i had leftover yarn from my mom's february lady sweater, so i used that - cascade 220 heather in spring. it reminds me of lettuce.
