well its been awhile since I have finished anything knitting related,
but due to a recent post over at The Yarniad
I have decided it is time to become a monogamous knitter....
what exactly does that mean you ask?
Well I am only allowed to start a new project after I have finished the other started ones.
I have "knit ADD" on a semi regular basis, and I regularly start a new project,at this point I probably have 9 WIPS, and over 30 intended projects that
I have already purchased the yarn for.. making this knitting thing a fairly expensive
and not a very productive hobby...However with my new found determination, I went into the recent HPKCHC challenge onMonday night 7/5 9pm determined to complete something outside the expected hat.

This was a fairly quick knit, and I am really happy with the result.
New rule, only allowed to knit with yarn I already have-
