Ribbit....Ribbit...Again

I went to KnitNight last night to discover that about 50 of my 400 stitches had come off the needle on Hush-Hush.  Fantastic.  Guess that was a sign that me ignoring the goofs wasn't going to fly.  Ripped the whole thing and started again.

Mystery project update...I think I'm going to add a cable edging to the bottom of the top.  It could be gorgeous, but I want to make sure it felts properly.  I made my first gauge swatch the other day, which I believe I've already mentioned, but I'm still so happy about it.

Things at home are doing better too.  We're laughing together again, which is something I thought was going to take a lot longer.

Time to start figuring out Christmas for the family.  I've got to get some serious knitting done if we're having a handmade Christmas again, which I'd assume we are.  I have no clue what to make this year....last year's slippers were a lot of fun to knit up but I doubt anyone wears them.  That's the most frustrating thing about investing all that energy into making stuff that no one cares about.  I would have loved to have some slippers like that, but I gave them all away.

Time to Ravel for ideas.
