The Frog Makes Trouble

I thought for sure I could finish my sister's frog hat tonight. I was wrong.

Between the loopy yarn that gets caught up on itself constantly and the fact that I can't quite figure out where to put the eyes, I'm tired of this hat, and I'm giving up for the night.

Stitching one eye on took quite a while because the yarn kept catching. You can imagine my joy when I realized the eyes was not in the right place and I needed to move it. I couldn't just snip the stiches out because I couldn't see where they were. I didn't want to undo the hat by accidentally snipping one of its stitches, so I had to pull the eye off stitch-by-stitch.

I guess I will wear a different hat to work tomorrow for our little Halloween celebration. The bird will suffice.

On a brighter note. I made fried chicken and acorn squash for dinner. It was tasty. After work tomorrow, I'm driving to my parents to visit my cat. Hooray!
