Saved from the frog pond!

Mr. Starfish's gray hat, that is.

For something so annoyingly simple AND in a pattern I've knit before with no problems (Kim's Hats from Last-Minute Knitted Gifts) I had a hell of a time trying to get this to fit his head. It looks like I'm on the right track now after several attempts at different needle sizes and cast on numbers. It's the men's earflap version in case anyone is keeping track.

I've also started something new for me. My first cabled project. I never feared cables but also never saw anything I was dying to make with cables. When I got the brown Cashmerino I zeroed in on the Karaoke Cable Scarf. A sample:

Both projects are going fast so I should have FO pictures soon!
