Laziness and Insanity

First of all a finished object!

Simple baby hat. Pattern: Yarn Harlot's no pattern hat pattern from Knitting Rules! Yarn: Filatura Di Crosa Baby in Kiss. Knit on number 7 needles.

That was a mindless project! It's a cute simple roll brim baby hat for my coworker's baby. I'm planning on adding a flower to it and making matching mittens and booties. Very fast, very satisfying! Actually I'm a little embarassed at how simple it is, but my addled brain couldn't handle anything more complicated at the moment. I feel like a blind monkey could have knit it, but it's the thought that counts right?

Speaking of thoughts - I lost my mind for 20 minutes today. Let me say that me buying three pairs of shoes in a boutique shoe store would normally be grounds for divorce with Mr. Lug, but today I found the mother of all sales - buy one pair get two free. That's right. Buy ONE get TWO free. TWO. Gah!

God help me I thought for a moment - I could get SIX shoes for the price of TWO! But I contained myself.

Now listen carefully, you know had that been yarn you totally would have gone for the 6 pairs! You were probably giddy with excitement that someone would realize the mistake and rip down the sign just as your were handing over your credit card! I have that nightmare - often!

That hat is very cute. Love the colors.

Lock your doors, because I'm coming to steal your shoes.

Those shoes are the cutest things I have ever seen, # 1 & #3 are my favorites. I would have totally gotten 6 pairs, you are a stronger than me.
