Back to the needles

I think my hobbies are getting cyclical like the fashion industry. I've been throwing myself into gardening all summer and now that the highs are getting near three digits during the day I'm retreating back onto the couch (yes, I also have some more free time with this rotation) and have re-started knitting. It really started with dropping into a yarn shop down near the coast, picking up the winter Vogue Knitting from last year, and seeing this cute hat. And now, look where we're at.
And yes, I'm watching LOST while doing it. So. Decadent.
