Why I Should Never Work from Home...



There's simply too much non-work related stuff to do at home. Like post to my newly revived blog and look for something to eat, do laundry and read mail.

Right before I went back to work from maternity leave, I got the overwhelming urge to knit something from start to finish. So I found a pattern that would be fast and not require much thought or really any sort of challenge. I just wanted to have the joy of making something since it had been so long (not counting the making of my son, one of the two most unimaginably beautiful creations of my lifetime). So here it is, Wendy's Last Minute Purled Beret, available for free over at Knit and Tonic. I decided not to block it so that it would be less beret-ish and more slouchy. I like it!

Here's Aidan passively modeling the hat. Don't worry, he loved it!

You wouldn't even know you live in cold, dark, ol' Alaskee by that first photo. Your room looks all sunny and fabulous.

I'm ready for a visit... I'll be up soon.

Oh, and I love the hat. Get busy and knit up some matching wrist warmers.
