{{Hugs}}. We all have one of those kind of UFOS lying around the house. I have this one crochet top which was so ghastly and out of shape when I finished (neckhole weird, arm holes huge, etc) I just tucked it out of sight and forgot about it, cost of yarn be damned.

But I can't trash this project! My sister already blogged about waiting for the hat and how excited she was :-(

I will try again this weekend. I haven't been able to face it this entire week.

I abandoned the provisional cast on (too fiddly on the sz 0s with the unstretchy yarn; I will try again another time) and went with a twisted german cast on. About 0.8" into the ribbed brim now using Magic Loop -- it's coming along nicely I think :-) tested the brim and it does fit over my head snugly! So I should be done with them brim in about another day. Now the hard part is, do I use my sz 3 DPNs for the lace or will that be too open -- because my sz 2 long circular is currently stuck in my sweater and I have unsuccessfully attempted to find a sz 2 16" circ for weeks now. It's not in any of my local stores and I don't have the time to get it shipped. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Short version of that para: Yes, progress! Yay. Fingers x'ed.

(That was like reading a foreign language, right?)
