Default Whew!

Got it done just under the Christmas shipping wire.

A friend is going through a rough patch and feeling unloved, so I was
going to make an afghan. I'd never worked with this yarn, guessed at
quantity, and overbought, so figured I might as well make a matching hat
and scarf ... living in a basement is cold.

Of course, because I have a shipping deadline, this is the year that the
legal system decides they're going to keep working between Thanksgiving
and Christmas, which means I have more paying work, less knitting time.

But just finished the last piece of it, so now I have to box it up and
venture out into the cold to ship it.

Finished 11/18/13 knit scarf with Berroco Brio #9447 (a very interesting
yarn!)
