I may have written once before about my soon-to-be-dil asking me why Ibothered to knit an afghan when I could go out and buy a blanket. Well,not too long after that discussion, she sent me a picture of a hat shewanted. She asked if I would knit that for her in exchange for apicture I wanted painted. I knit away and she has had the hat for twoyears now. So far no painting, but that is just fine with me. However,the other night she started bragging about that hat, about how peopleat the university come up to her all the time asking where she got it,and she is so happy to tell them that it is a one of a kind hat andthat they cannot buy one like it anywhere. Now she is hinting that shewants a magic scarf because one of her friends has one. I can't get onedone for Christmas with three pair of socks still needing to befinished, but it will be on the list for the new year, too.Wish I had something I wanted to start for myself for a NYCO. I amworking on a beautiful F/F shawl in black for myself for the wedding inMay, so perhaps that will count as a cast on as I do some increases onNew Years' Eve.Hugs,Susan
