So here’s the update on Ziggy.
\n

\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nZiggy is no more. It just wasn’t working for me, and when I showed Emily how much I’d done, she wasn’t feeling the love any more either.
\nOff to the frogpond.
\nOf course, this doesn’t negate the fact that she wants a slouchy hat in those colours to wear to casual day at school. Tomorrow.
\nIntroducing Flicker-ish.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nIt’s based very loosely on Kim Hargreaves Flicker, which I knit for myself late last year. That’s the one Em loved, and nothing else was working quite right, so I modified Flicker to work, hence the Flicker-ish!
\nThe rib is worked in 1×1 twisted rib, and the hat is knit in the round instead of flat and seamed. The stitch count is different, and the pattern is a 3 row repeat, so in the original, every second repeat is purl side out, but I’m too lazy for that, so it’s all knit side out on this one!
\nI stayed up late last night to do it, and have worked on it pretty much all day, and it should be done for tomorrow, although it won’t be blocked. I don’t think she’ll care though! (And tough luck if she does!!)
\nApart from that, I’m having one of those crazy busy weeks anyway, so I’m behind on my blogging, behind on my emails, behind on my ravmails. If you’re waiting to hear from me, I haven’t forgotten you, and I’m not ignoring you, I promise.
\nTwinkie is feeling neglected, and is now looking for nose rubs wherever she can get them.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nUnfortunately, Roxie isn’t listening either.
\nEDIT:
\nHere is a picture of the EmPress in her normal state, undertaking her normal activity. (Whilst trying on, and approving, a hat)
