December Thirtieth, Twenty Eleven

Last completed knitting project of 2011: a hat for Mom to match the shell I made her this year.  She will get a special surprise when she gets a flower pin from the same yarn in the mail sometime later.  She originally wanted a flower pin from the yarn, but then changed her mind to a hat that she said she wanted to knit herself.  So like a good daughter I brought the rest of the yarn plus an assortment of needles with me, and waited to get her started.  Then toward the end of my visit she told me to just make it, so I did.  At least I'm starting to feel better now that I am on medicine!
