bear-ets

I got tired of the socks. I decided to finish the hat (beret) I was making from a pattern by Lily Chin. It turned out pretty good.



I had a hard time taking my own photo wearing it, so I got a model who was sitting around the house.



It uses bulky or chunky yarn. I used Linie 157 Tessa for the heathered yarn and Lett-Lopi for the black. It knitted up really fast, so I'm encouraged to make a few more for gifts.

Zulu? He's right here, checking out the back yard.



I'm going to the Oscars!! I got the tickets last Wednesday. My old college buddy, Janice, can't go -- she's the reason I tried for the tickets in the first place -- but my good friend, Alyson, is joining me. I am planning on wearing one of the outfits I got in India. I'll take plenty of pictures.

Oscars!?!!?? How cool that you get to go!!! I think you should wear your new beret and some hand-knit socks for comfort. All eyes will be on you. On the Red Carpet when they ask, "Who are you Wearing?" You can say, "Me."
