Feeling Blue

It's cold and dark today, Summer feels a long time ago and yet it's not yet cold enough to have the heating on. I'd like to go for a walk to warm up a bit but there is heavy rain promised and I don't particularly fancy being caught out in it. I think instead I'll snuggle under a blanket and knit, that's got to be similarly good for the soul right?



I finished my Sockhead hat. I don't have anyone around to take a picture for me so I tried to do a selfie. Hmm my kitchen looks a bit messy, and I've cut the top off my head. Let's try again:



Oh well, close enough lol. It's a lovely cosy hat and considering it's an oversized beanie knitted with sock yarn it actually knit up quite quickly. I definitely think I'd knit one of these again, it's a great way of showing off a pretty skein of yarn that would be wasted as socks. I wish you could see the silver sparkle in the yarn, so pretty :-)



Even my projects are blue today! Mr Soaring Sheep's socks seem never ending. I've probably got a couple of inches left to do but they're so BORING and SLOW. Ahem. So I did the only thing possible, I cast on another project ;-) Can you tell what it's going to be yet?
