It's a good thing my head is attached!

We had a small group with mighty discussions today but as a result, my brain totally forgot to take pictures of what we were knitting. Oh well...

 I did get pictures of hats. Dorah made gifts for the people who supply her with good veggies and eggs. But did I get the names of the patterns? I think the one on the right is the Orchard Harvest Beanie by Benjamin Matthews. He sells his patterns on Ravelry and they are always well written and easy to understand. The blue one on the left...your guess is as good as mine.

I finished a beanie last night but I didn't use a pattern. After a while, hats just jump off the needles without any directions.

I did use a new to me technique though. I wanted to learn how to knit one row stripes with no jogs so I searched on YouTube and found this tutorial which made it very easy to knit. Grace O'Neill is the instructor and she has the most soothing voice and sweetest accent. I could listen to her all day.

But thank goodness I remembered to get a picture of today's snack! Barbara B. made sourdough thumbprint fig jam cookies. I may have taken a few extra off her hands so she doesn't have to eat them all herself. ;)

The Chicks will be taking a break next week to prepare for the Thanksgiving holiday. Here's hoping you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and maybe find a moment to keep those needles clicking.
