Progress and hats are off!

 I finished both hats in record time, it helps with worsted weight yarn they work up so quickly.

I hope they fit the guys and aren't too small. I sent a photo of me wearing the green one to show what the sizing is. They are loose-ish so enough play in the stretch. I mailed them off today and should be up there in about seven days or so. It took me about nine or ten days to make the green hat, I can see why a lot of people just make hats for charity, easy pattern, works up fast and you can have one done in about a week.

More progress on the Cypress Hill mitt. Started on the thumb gusset but it was too confusing trying to work the slip stitch with increases so decided to do flat knitting. It's ended up with a little poof at the bottom so I may have to use some extra yarn and stitch that in.  The cuff and body are a bit snug on me but will see what happens later. I decided to start on the second one since I have the needles free and hoping by the time I finish the ribbing on that one I'll be done with the body on the first one. I doubt it because I'm working the ribbing on the second one for now. I think I'll do that until I'm long enough then go back to the first one and finish it. I wish I had the needle to do both of them at the same time but it was just too confusing. I hope to use the green yarn as well in the same pattern. The slip stitch doesn't stretch crosswise easily so the green ones I might size up to a 3 for the main body for a bit more ease. 

I rediscovered the blue wave socks in my main bag of projects, those are going to wait because the pattern is a bit more fidgety and the color is dark. I also picked up the Sheepicorn socks and am working a four row repeat in the evening when I'm sitting in bed. Sometimes two repeats. 

That's all for now, just working the patterns trying to keep calm and knit on!
