The mohawk hat is giving me fits. I’ve ripped and reknit the gussets several times and they still bulge in an unsightly manner. At this point it’s time to move on so hopefully they’re improved enough that I can block them out. I’ll have to find something round to pin it out on and give it a vigorous blocking before I add the "hair". You have to cut 150 3-4" bits and attach them with a crochet hook so the hat must meet with Dan’s approval before I go to that much trouble.

Last night was back to school night at the high school. You follow your kids schedule and spend ten minutes in each classroom where the teacher does a brief presentation. That meant a quick simple supper. Sliced farmer’s market tomatoes, panfried salmon with farmer’s market veggies and steamed potatoes with lemon juice and cilantro. Not bad for an off-the-cuff ready in 20 minutes meal.
