Lobster debut
We have had a morning frost for the last few days - Toby needed mittens this morning. Out came the recently completed Lobster Claw Mitts:
They are totally cute. I knit the largest size, and they fit Toby's hands but they're not roomy large. However the pattern is totally easy to upsize - basically you knit two triangles and then assemble them and add a cuff. Hannah wants a pair too - I'll have to find some lobstery yarn in the stash.
Toby also made a highly cute Harry Potter for Halloween:
He spent much of the evening casting spells. Including some quite potent ones at the house with 5 or 6 high school kids dressed and installed as statues on the lawn - coming to life and scaring the bejeezus out of the girls ;)
Hannah was a "rabid bunny" which had plans of using whipped cream on the face for the rabid part, though those plans were nixed by moms. (Partypoopers that we are.) Ditto on the backup plan of shaving cream.
The candy haul is nearly consumed - though Girl Scout cookies just arrived so there's no dearth of sugar in the house.

Rabid bunny is pretty funny. Kid's got a good sense of humor. And you're a party pooper. ;-)
