Phyl,

You are beautiful and I could never pull off a hat in my life!

Steve,
My Granny would have enlisted you in her knitter's brigade with your spectacular workmanship..........a fine knitter you are!  I'm sure you knit fine healing properties into those knit one pearl two's.


Hugs to you both!

Aw Phyl~
It is not bad & when you feel better, you can throw the hat on and take another pic!  ;D  Sorry you had a rough week, but I bet that surprise in the mail made it a little better!

Love ya!

Phyl,

Up close you can see a little of the bleary eyed look of a moderator who has been pouring over all the new posts again. Dedication has its price!

The small avatar picture hides all that, though, and looks fine. No worries. :)

great hats and great picture ...

I was presented this lovely hand knit RED "toque" by Steve at an ANA meeting. Such a sweetie is "our Steve"... a great guy to have in a club. :-*  :) The workmanship in the knitting is excellent. Warms me right up  :) does this hat - knit by Sunny Disposition Steve.

Merci beaucoup,

You're so fantastic Steve! In the beginning I thought you were joking, but I realize you don't.  :D

OMG Steve!  You are just mass-producing these hats, aren't you??

Where do you find time to knit?  Did you quit your day job?  Between working, moderating, and knitting I'm wondering if you get any sleep at all :o
