I had hubster wait for me while I ran into Joanne's to get the glass buttons I had seen a few weeks ago. Even with the 50% off coupon, the buttons were still more expensive than the yarn. And I don't have any way to block a 
hat so I came up with my own. I inverted a potpourri bowl (yes, it is still filled, I don't have time to be emptying it) over another bowl and put it on a pint glass. Let's see if it is something yummy...yup! Otter Creek Octoberfest. Mmmm. All this knitting and blogging is making me thirsty.

Can good knitting, a good pattern, and the best of intentions add up to a pretty hat or one that just looks like you got sick after eating too much cotton candy?

Hey! Thanks for commenting and complimenting on my blog :) I think the color of the hat looks pretty, but tastes and computer monitors differ... :P Congrats on winning the blog makeover contest! The blogs she designed look really beautiful - everything just flows together and nothing looks like a list of lists (like it does on my and a lot of others' blogs). And the headers!! I worked on my header for the better part of a day, and it's still not as cool as some other headers I've seen.
Also, I completely relate about the multiple tabs - everyday at work, when I should be working..., I always have tabs open for my old school e-mail, Gmail, Ravelry, and one for miscellaneous things like people's blogs, yarn stores, or maybe actually something for work ;)
I also only get about an hour or two of knitting time each day, and yesterday I didn't get any at all, so I know what you're going through when it comes to finishing projects in a decent amount of time and actually using up your stash (Ha!! What a funny joke...).
And I really like your header too - my backyard is unkempt and faces a dumpster, so there is nothing like that in my yard.
Good luck with your next project!
