one-two punch last week and I landed in bed for several days. I usually muddle along through most colds, so the fact that this one took me out of commission and kept me from knitting is a testament to just how bad it was.
The doctor told me to take it easy. I must admit I've never been very good at following that advice, but I didn't have much choice this time around. Over the weekend when I could sit on the couch propped up with needles in hand, I knew I was on the road to recovery. Today I'm still a little wobbly, but I'm upright and functioning on some level.
I didn't tackle anything too adventurous when I was recovering on the couch.
Wavy Legs. This hat has a nice deep brim, and interesting combinations of knit and purl stitches make for a cozy, squishy fit.
The yarn is Lucia DK in Heliotrope. Other options . . . make it without the pompom or add a strand of mohair for a soft halo. There's nothing like a good hat to boost the spirits.
