Warnings: I look stupidly happy in the following pics, and I have no makeup on. That's right, under the cut, there are pictures of my naked face. You kinky LJer's may find this titillating, especially because you can see my freckles. I don't think any in the kingdom of LJ have seen my freckles before, as they were always decently covered by makeup.
But anyways:
I knitted this hat. Completely on my own. This was a piece of string before it met me.
The utterly awesome tails.
A close-up of the horns.
See, this is what you can accomplish when you don't let The Man grind you down. (when you are unemployed and free and don't even need money cuz look at the cool shit you can make YOURSELF!!) I was terribly excited when I finished, most because it is the most complicated thing I have ever knitted, what with having so much coolness about it, and yet no seams. Its creation involved several things I had not, despite knitting since age 9 (11 years, yo.), attempted before, like knitting in a round using double pointed needles. Anyways, I just wanted to show off on the internets. Also, if anybody wants a hat like this, I can make you one, just drop me a line, and I will have it ready to give/mail to you in 3-4 days, unless the apocalypse comes, in which case it might take a week. Or you could make one yourself and be as badass as me! The pattern is over here.
Also, Wifeypants: you shouldpost some pics of that scarf I made for you with the handspun. I think it's one of the prettiest things I ever knit, probably cuz I made with you in mind . Also, make sure you take it with you Delaware so you will be warm and toasty and not freeze your lovely banonoes off.
Editted repeatedly cuz something was wrong with the LJ cut.
