the start of another loooooooong week

Mike did really well yesterday considering he wasn't on top form, and Sam had been really poorly the night before. I don't entirely understand people who want to run, but admire them for it all the same! I'd rather take my hobbies at a more sedate pace like....

.... nearly finishing the Bamboo black vest-top on Sunday (just boring tidying up ends of wool left) and starting on what will now be known as "The Last of the Mohicans." I promised Mike (upon receipt of Domiknitrix for my birthday last year) that I would make him the mohawk hat. I started about a month ago with quite fine aran wool and it ended up, well, a little small for him - but Sam got a cool hat out of it!! So to make good on my promise, I've started again knitting in nice chunky wool and I'm about 1/3 done. I say it's the last of the mohicans because trying to follow "SSK, knit to marker, RLI, sl marker, k1, LLI, knit to last 2, k2tog" repeatedly is sending me loopy!

Work is going to be busy, but at least the days will go nice and quick! Now back to picking up gusset stitches...
