Alas, it’s time to wrap up my DC trip and head home. I did get to cast on my next hat in the last session to have it ready for my flight home. I am calling this one my Conference 2025 Hat.

Like a broken record this is my 88 stitches on US 8s with worsted yarn basic hat “recipe” and I made good progress on the flight. Though I got a little distracted. The lovely young women next to me turned out to be a NASA scientist how also knits! We talked for quite awhile.

I think I shocked her a little bit as she is just getting out of scarf and blanket phase and into garments. I showed her some of my stuff and talked about my knitting, to which she responded “Oh you are a like a KNITTER then”. And I laughed as I couldn’t disagree!

Happy Knitting!!
