These are the hat and mitts I made a while back.  I lost one of the mitts for a little while so I didn't get a picture. I finished all the pieces for the little fox so now I just have to sew it together.  The decreases do show up if I stuff it as firmly as I like so I'm going to have to lighten up on that a little.  I was going to send some hair bands with it but I think I'll just make another tiny fox in another style.  I don't know why I feel like I have to add extra things but I do.  I'm just to the thumb for my daughter's fingerless glove.  I'm going to work back and forth for a while then connect it again to make the hole.  I'll decide later if I wasn't to leave it like that or add a little to the thumb hole.  If I do add something I'll probably crochet instead of trying to pick up stitches,

I was listening to an episode of In a Sknit (the one before the newest one) and I had a little problem. They were running a knit-a-long where you were supposed to make things that were the same but different. For example you could make two mittens that were the same pattern but different colors, that kind of thing.  I entered my totors but I made a mistake. For many knit-a-longs it doesn't matter when you start the project just when you finish.  This one it did matter and it didn't dawn on me till after I posted that the white totoro wasn't started at the right time.  I thought about deleting it but I thought it would be o.k. to leave it since they were the same but different and I wasn't going to win a prize anyway.  I won.  I sent a message to one of the hosts to pick someone.  That was kind of embarrassing.  I'll be more careful in the future.

It's a touch warmer today that it was yesterday.  27 (F) feels like 7 is much nicer that 9 feels like -7.  I'm tired for no reason. I think it's just the weather.  I want to curl up under the blankets and hibernate like a bear. I think that's it for now, see you next time.
