I've been in stitches all day...

Stud's drama club is putting on it's spring show this weekend. The kids had to be at school at 12:30 this afternoon, which allowed him to sleep in a little after being up late last night for Opening Night.

This is what I did while I was waiting for Stud to get dressed this morning...

...while waiting for the show to end...

...and what I did after the show. (I made the brim a little wider on this one. I like it better than the first.)

I have now made a total of 6 baby hats, and I finally think I have it down. Look at the size difference between the first one I made last weekend, and the one I made today! It the exact same pattern, but I believe the difference is the tension. I think I was pulling the stitches too tight when I first started. Now that I've got some kind of "form," I've learned to relax my hands a bit

Here are the two finished hats for KC's sister's twins. I hate to toot my own horn, but damn, they're cute!!

So far, since I taught myself to crochet a week ago, I've made 6 hats and 3 scarves. How hilarious is that? I made a scarf a day for the first three days. The funniest part of that is that it was in the 80s when I made those! I think I'm going to pack them away for the holidays. Or, maybe I'll make them again, now that I've gotten the hang of it...
