![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!!!!

Knitting and Crochet Blog Week Day 4 hosted by Eskimimi: House of Flying Monkey: Color Review
What colors do I think I use:
Bright vivid colors like jewel tones. I rarely use neutrals or pastels, even for baby things….so, yea, I like the bright colors of Oz.
The colors I actually use:
The colors in the stash:
Conclusion: I like them all!….but, this does have me noting that I’m not a fan of heather or tweed yarn. I wonder what that says about my chosen knitting house (flying monkey)? Do manatees prefer tweeds? Do peacocks like eyelash yarn?

Your Yarn looks very organised! Beautiful projects. That shawl is amazing and I love the brightly coloured socks.
Thanks so much! Most of those socks are Hunter Hammersen patterns. Her designs are gorgeous.
First off, I love the bright colors. Especially those purple-y ones. Gorgeous.
Second off, why did you cut your face out of the toboggan pic? It would have been nice for the world to see that sweet face in that rockin’ ‘boggan!
=)
You take a picture of your hand knit hat in the mirror while not showing the camera in the picture and then we’ll talk. easier said than done.
I’m waiting to see what you do with that awesome skein of orange in your stash!
me too!!!……..but you just gave me an idea.
Speaking as a manatee, I have no idea what our colors should be. Whatever they are, I don’t think my affinity for rainbows, sparkles, and brightness falls into it exactly. Love all of those socks, especially the pink ones!
Thanks so much! The pink colorway is Tickled Pink by Lorna’s Laces.
Great projects, and I adore those mitts!
My color choice was inspired by a wall at the Bellagio in Vegas. true story.
Love that shawl!
Thank you, kind lady!
