I'm starting to get bored with knitting hats.

Denise was telling me today that she had figured out how to knit mittens. I knitted a pair of mittens once. Made them out of Blue Sky Alpacas Bulky. They were very nice but made my hands itch. Still, they were nice. Well, I lost them when I went to NYC with Fredrik. I think they fell out of my coat pockets when I was in the taxi with Fredrik looking desperately for our hostel.

I wish I wasn't allergic to wool. I tried to wear one of the wool kitty hats I knitted and I ended up with a rather itchy forehead. As I said to Denise, "I itch, then I scratch and then I look like some meth head with sores all over the place."
