WIP-it Wednesday...

...with slow progress.

Here's a progress shot of Mermaid of the Pearls:

Yes, there are loose threads. Leaving a long starting tail allows me to add in a bead on that end if I accidentally miss one. I'll bury both ends of the threads in the back when I get to the end of the floss.

Another progress shot, this time it's the Ravellenic Hat [Ravelry]:

I'm having trouble working on this hat while watching the Olympics because I get so caught up in the action! I have to keep reminding myself to knit...lol!

I don't know how much I'll get done tonight. It depends on whether the Husband wants to celebrate Valentine's Day. Some years we do; some years we don't.
