This morning, as I merged onto the freeway, those ahead of me merged. Yet a guy tried to go around me, on the shoulder in an attempt to get as far ahead as he could (some creepy people often do that on this entry ramp on Hwy 4). I blocked him. He tried it three times. Later, I saw him on the freeway. He had some kids. I thought to myself, "Great, he is multiplying. His kids are going to learn to drive just like him."
I finally have a picture of my completed and blocked gift for my cousin, Bobby. They are wristbands or are they called sweatbands? Are the bands that go on your head called sweatbands, making the ones that go on your wrists 'wristbands'? I don't know? He likes to go running, so I thought that these would be cool to use to wipe his sweat. =) The way I took the picture makes them look funny. They look better in 'person'.

When I decided to do the project, I searched and searched for the right main color yarn. I used Cascade Fixation. It is made with elastic and is perfect for the bands. The yarn takes some time to get used to but it is kinda neat to work with. When I errored, I was able to stretch the stitch and easily see where to insert my needle in order to 'unknit' the stitch. The white yarn is Lily Sugar N' Cream. I did not use a pattern for it is so easy. However, I did use part of this skull chart for the design.
