I have been pretty busy, so let me show some knitting I did a couple of weeks ago but have been too lazy to blog about.
I ripped the hood off my Debbie Bliss cabled hoodie, because it was stupidly long and covered half of the elaborately cables back! Here's a little photo (I've also updated the page with the big photos on it but if you've seen this little photo you've seen it all, I promise!):
And with of the ripped out yarn, I made a headband, from a pattern I found on craftster - it's a very cool pattern, easy and cute :)

OK well, I'm still plugging away at Dad's jumper for now, I had forgotten how big a man jumper is! Good job Adam doesn't want any more jumpers, I'm going to stop offering now I remember how long the bloody things take!

Ah excellent use of the leftover hood yarn. Very fun! Also lovin' the new collar on that sweater.

I loved the back of your cabled sweater, and the headband keeps your head warm, just as a hood would have!! what a lucky father you have!!

That was a great idea - now you can really appreciate all that nice cable work ont he back of the sweater! Great way of re-using the yarn too. Well done.
