![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!!!!

When Cindy, of Gauge Wars, called for testers for her pretty heart cowl, I jumped at the chance.
I thought of my Grammy, grabbed some periwinkle shi bui and took the puppy for a test drive.
The cast on for this is about twice the number needed for my average sock. Yet, I KEPT being surprised by how many stitches were in a round. It became somewhat comical.
This charming cowl went off to Grammy for Christmas and she loved the hearts and the color. and I love her.
Ps. Check out what others have finished at:

It is beautiful! I am glad Grammy liked it. Thanks for test knitting it and for sharing!!
You are most welcome. It was a fun knit. :)
Just darling. And to have the recipient adore it is even better!
Yes, I was so glad she liked it. :)
So pretty! And how nice of you to do it for your grandmother!
She’s a peach. I was happy she liked it. :)
Such a lovely color and it looks great on you! I find it fun to do something up as a test. Thank you for sharing this.
It is a little more pastel than I usually go for, but I could not resist the not blue but not purple color. :)
I bought the pattern but haven’t cast on yet. It took so long to finish my last cowl. I just dyed some new red yarn…maybe I should for Valentine’s day.
I think it would look GREAT in red for Valentine’s day. :)
That’s so pretty! Good work.
gracias! :)
