![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!!!!

As you may recall, these puppies gave me a bit of a problem.
But, I got them straightened out and they ended up looking nice AND fitting L after just a bit of work. Behold, “socks on fire”!
Pattern: Polyommatus argiolus Sock by Hunter Hammersen
Size: Large
Decreased foot by 6 stiches on bottom of foot. Per Hunter’s advice, decreased for toes on top every other row first until top and bottom of foot lined up for toe decreases.
Needles: 2.0 mm bamboo (one casualty)
Yarn: Blue Ridge Yarns Jubilee – Dragon’s Breath (I don’t love the way this yarn pools. It took a bit of doing to get an effect I was pleased with. I am not likely to use it again even though it is TEMPTING given all the compliments the socks in progress got.)
