O.M.G.
OK, this is IN SANE (like Crazy Eddie!) I just found out that this blog HAS AN AVID READER!!!!!
/me waves to avid reader
Hi! It’s SO GREAT to, um, write for you??
Anyway.
I cast on for a hat to match Jacob’s sweater. I cast on 96 stitches because, well - I don’t know why. It’s DK weight. I’m using size 5s. I saw a pattern that recommended 80 stitches for a kid and 90 for a grownup and they were using worsted weight and size 7 or 8 needles. So, I totally and randomly guessed. I knitted about an inch of stockinette to make it roll and match the sweater, and now I’m doing 2x2 rib. We’ll see. It should fit SOMEONE since I have bigger and smaller heads available.

Heh -- is that me? Sorry if I'm creeping you out. You commented on another blog about the socio-economic status of Chestnut Hill & drinking at playdates. I'm a mom of three, live in Germantown and I knit so when I clicked though and saw it was a mom's knitting blog from a local, I added you to my 'locals' tab. As it happens, the other locals update at different times of the day, so I refresh all the tabs frequently.
So in your stats it may look like I'm refreshing your page fervently, but I'm not. (Not that you're not worthy!!! lol)
No, no, not creeped out at all. More like happy and excited :)
I also have three kids. I live in Lafayette Hill. I don't know if I have mentioned that in the blog... :)
I think you have at least 2 regular readers!
