I have a finish!!!!! My Brainzzz hat is done. I used a free pattern from Kathy Doherty. I didn't really do a right and left hemisphere. I just wound the I-cord. I didn't really think of that....oh well...I have no idea how much I-cord I knitted. I stopped measuring at 14 feet....
I have a bunch of socks to finish and then a new poncho to start....
I never posted my Rhinebeck haul, it's not very big...
I got three skeins of yarn from Bumblebee Acres Farm because I have been coveting her Harry Potter colors on Instagram. I got Professor Lupin, and then in a kit to make the Gathering Shawl is Mrs. Weasley Knits and I'll Await Your Owl. Plus I bought three mini-skeins for heels and toes. I also got the Teacher's Pet print from Sheep Incognito and their 2020 calendar. I've always loved their prints and glad I finally bought one. I also bought some chicken socks from Red Maple and chicken earrings from Weeones. I bought three things from Mayan Hands, which is a fairtrade booth that brings handmade items from Mayan women in Guatemala every year. I buy something from them every year. This year I bought a Santa, a sheep, and a chicken felted ornaments. That's it...so not much of a haul....next week is the Fiber Festival of New England and I'll probably get some more there...That is it until Vogue Knitting in January.....

Brainzzz - October 26, 2019
Works In Progress:
WIPS: Crochet:
Round Ripple: (Started 2006 (?) Aiden)-not sure he'd want this anymore, being a high school freshman and all, but I think I'll finish it for him. He is now a sophomore.
Around the World Afghan: (April 2010): about ¼ done - I looked at this recently and I'm still liking it, so I'll keep it...maybe make it a baby blanket instead.
Sunrise Sunset Afghan: this has been hibernating awhile, 6 squares done. I still love the look of this.
Tabard Tunic (NW Diss 2/1/14) - Haven't made a final decision on this yet.Venetian Cowl (July 1, 2018)
Knit:
Learn to Knit Afghan: (started 2010): 3 squares done, I put this in the giveaway yarn bags..not thrilled with colors....will use squares at school for water bottles..
Shark in the Woods (11/27/14)- I really love this, but it's a lot of cabling and I'm not a fan..about 1/2 done.
Vanilla fingerless mitts (12/25/15) - Think I'm going to frog and do different mitts or crochet them.
Zombie Vixen mitts (10/17/15)- still working on them, again cabling
Garter Path Shawlette (5/30/16)- I have frogged this a couple of times...
Swinging with Winkle (6/4/16)- I love this so much! Just need to finish it! Added a few rows
Meandering Top (5/20/16) - Took it out, at the separation of arms, looks really big!
Bulky Cowl - this hurts my hands to work on...think I need slippery needles...
Splediferous Blanket - (4/15/17) Roald Dahl club, mitered blanket
Selbu Mitts - 3/26/18
Beekeeper Cardigan - 7/1/18

I think I'll make a list of finishes this year. You've inspired me. !!! I love your brains photo!!! Keep up your fun posts!
The brain hat is so fun. I hope with doing that much icons you used teeny tiny length needles, I’ve not found a needle short enough for me to try that length. Your stash looks lovely. The large skein with the deep purple and other colours looks gorgeous. The picture is super cute.
Super cute hat, just perfect for Halloweenish time! Good choices for the Rhinebeck haul and have fun at the Fiber Festival of New England. Here's hoping that you are headache free by the time you're reading this.
Love the Brains hat! What fun that will be to wear. :)
I love the brain hat! And your purchases look fab.
14 ft of icord!!!!! That's a lot. But the hat is great. Your haul is perfect and I am sure it will be used soon. Hope your head is better tomorrow.
Oh my. 14 plus feet i-cord. Hilarious. The hat is great!! Your rhinebeck haul is delicious and the Potter names of everything is very cute. Hope the headache leaves soon so you can get to knitting up those new purchases!
The hat is awesome....I made cookies like that one year for Halloween. I love your Rhinebeck items! I'm going to check those shops if they have an online shop. I love the ornaments and the chickens. Too cute! Enjoy all your fiber festivities!
I love the hat! :-) Enjoy Sunday and rest. Regula
