If this:
…had a baby with this…
…I think you would end up with this:
The Sock Monkey Marsan Hat!! I can’t take credit for this idea — it all goes to cutoutwitch on Ravelry. I thought it was cute and I had the yarn — very old Lopi in stash; the red is Lamb’s Pride Bulky. But, I only had one skein of the brown and could have used more. Oh well. I am just going to wear this for walking the dog. I may even add a pom pon for fun!!
And this is the Boo Hat in a more serious pose. It is another Marsan for my nephew, and I really like how it turned out. Once blocked, it was plenty big. Even fits my large melon. Whew.
And one more small FO from this weekend — finished it up as I watched the Vikes beat the Packers yet again 
It’s a Scraper Mitt for my Viking-obsessed bro — just a small Christmas gift.
So, I think it is becoming obvious even to me…I am suffering from a huge case of “large project avoidance.” It’s fun for a while and you actually end up with some small FOs, but c’mon — a Vikings Scraper Mitt??? I’m not even a Vikings fan — well, maybe a little bit of a fair weather one, but that’s another story!I
I think I may be the one who is going to need a scraper soon, because in the not-too-distant future I see me scraping the bottom of the knitting barrel! I told someone recently that I have enough projects in queue to last a year. But at this rate, make it a decade!! I will start something this week, I promise [Susan vows hopefully to self!].
