![Confession Time with Katie:
Playing Mario Kart has made me a worse driver. As I drove to lunch with a friend, I wished for a flashing star so I could be invincible and drive through everything.
Also, we're eating bagels for lunch because throwing rules out windows is my new favorite hobby.
Speaking of hobbies, I started a Constellate Hat in the colorway, African Violets by LolaBean Yarn. The first Constellate took me nineteen months so surely i can beat that!
LOL. @marz1pan thought I was knitting a sock for someone with HUGE calves!
In writing news, I plan to send a short story before mid-December so join my Inner Circle Email List if you need a dopamine hit right about now.
I hope you have the Monday you need, Crew! I love you!!!!
[ID: Veggie rosemary bagel and tuna salad sesame seed bagel with a purple hat in progress.]

In the end, I wanted the ankles of my dad’s socks to be as tall as I could make them, so I was working a sock from each end of the cake. For the most part, this was easier to manage than I expected and worked like a charm. TH even thought they might have been a tad too tall, but I decided to just cast off at that point.
And he was kind enough to pose for a photo.
Doesn’t TH make a lovely sock model?
The yarn is Spinning Bunny Merino/Silk in the Sled Dog colorway. The project is raveled here.
Fantastic socks! They are so stripy and fun. I’m sure that he loves them a lot!
Thank you! The striping was a little bit of a challenge, but I was pleased with the final product. :)
