There is something soothing and comforting about chocolate. There is a reason so many people love it so. So today, I’m knitting chocolate. Claudia Handpaints finger in the chocolate colorway to be exact. I cast on this morning in the financial aid office, and was going to make a game of seeing how far I could get on this sock before they helped me. Miraculously they called me in quickly. Whether or not things are actually fixed, I don’t know. I hope so.

In other news I have a free pattern for download on Ravelry. The snappy hat. Uses one skein of bulky yarn (108+ yards) and size 10.5 needles. Works up quick and looks great. In sizes small (child), medium (adult), and large adult. Click here to download the free pdf. It’s also on my free patterns page of course. Enjoy!
