soccer brings knitting

As the coach's wife, I have the pleasure of generally getting to G's soccer games pretty early.  And I admit, I am one of those moms who gets very nervous before the game, and then very INTO it once the game starts - like I can't sit still and I'm often hoarse by the end.

Now that soccer season is upon us and G is doing travel soccer, I have lots of nervous energy to burn off before the games.  So I knit.  It's worked out well so far.  Here are 2 of my projects I've completed in the last couple of weeks.

Burlington hat:  I love this pattern!  It was in a knitting magazine - not too hard and lots of fun.  I'm starting another one of these tonight.

This is another hat - this is just a pattern I made up - it's K6P2, so it's a nice chunky rib.
