Ooo, that is one cute hat. What yarn did you get for the hat you are going to make?
You must be able to eat just about anything you want what with all this physical activity!

Cable knitting isn’t that tough–I taught myself and I’m sure you’ll get the hang of it. In other news, I think I’m burning calories just by reading your blog. I have a feeling that come October as long as I keep reading all your posts, I will be able to polish off one of those 3 kilo jars of Nutella I’ve been praising so much lately. Your blog has such unexpected benefits!

Cabling is one of those things that looks so absolutely impressive, but is really, really, ridiculously easy. Good stuff.

You are a brave girl…I’ve seen cable knitting on “Knitty Gritty” and I think I’ll pass.

Your new swim team sounds very inspiring. I swam laps alone during college and have never found it as motivating as practicing with a team. Granted, there’s no shame factor when you ditch out before you’re done with your last 500, but you know…

I’m totally addicted to cabling and that hat looks like a good way to get rid of some scrap yarn. I might have to attempt one. Even though I barely wear hats. I’ve got a cute cable scarf going up soon though – One Skein Wonder baby!

So glad that you’ve found such a great new group to swim with (and little do they know yet how lucky they are that you’ve chosen to join them!)

Cute project – and you should have fun with it. Cables are easy-peasy – they only look difficult. (I do recommend the use of a cable needle. They’re cheap, and they make it easier….)

That hat is so cute. I like the “life is good” gear. Congratulations on the swimming.

I do love beer and running around. Too bad I live in BFE.

The hat’s adorable, but you know it’ll be 90 by next week again… j/k

That hat is the cutest! It would be perfect for the weather we are having here… one more thing to add to my list of “to learn”!

And anytime you want to go to Cabo, I am willing!! LOL! Have fun playing Ultimate, and congrats on the swimming!

Have fun tonight!

Also….none of us knit to save money! IT is a hobby the costs us money!

Cute hat! If you have problems with cables, call me and let I’ll talk you through it.
