Test Knitting

I've started a test knit on a hat that looks very interesting. This pattern's not available yet, so I don't want to say much about it right now, except that it is really clever. It's got a rather unique construction and a lot of character and it just appealed to me right off the bat.

It should be a pretty quick knit, too, since it is basically just knit and purl stitches. Of course, my problem is going to be finding the time to do any knitting at all.

I told myself that this would be a present. That way I could justify knitting it when I have so many things waiting to be knit for Christmas presents.

But, who am I kidding? This baby's gonna be mine.
