I return to the blogging.

But not the knitting, since I hadn’t left that.

Let’s see.

I finished the patchwork vest.  I also figured out that among the defects on my camera is that it has a self-timer, but only in automatic mode.

Cedar gave me the bright idea to close it with hooks and eyes.  I used small ones, so they’re not noticeable when it’s open, but kind of a pain to deal with.  I’ve yet to find an actual occasion to wear this, but I have hopes, really I do.

The other recent big project has been significant progress on what I like to call the Sweater of Doom, but which is actually a Rowan pattern named Rapunzel.  The date on the pattern booklet suggests I’ve been working on this for the past 5 or 6 years.  It needs edging and buttons.  And preferably a way of making it fit.

Also for your viewing pleasure: my new bathroom rug, inspired by Mason-Dixon Knitting, and some hats inspired by a friend’s request for water-themed thoughts and art.  The big hat is on hold in its felting process at the moment, since one of my hands is slightly burnt and disapproves of hot water.
