Skew done, hat done, moved to a new apt...whew!

Well I finished my skew socks right on time! They are a little hard to get over my heels but once they are on they fit perfectly. They also photograph quite nicely:
I really liked working with this yarn. The colors are great and it's nice and soft. It did shed a little bit of fuzzies, but I think that was worth dealing with. 

Once I finished up the socks it was time to speed knit Ceara's student wizard hat for the Harry Potter midnight showing on Thursday the 14th. Lucky for me the pattern was a quick knit and I was able to finish it in about half a day. It even fit perfectly!
Ceara also made herself a robe to go with the hat, so she had the whole uniform. She even was on the news talking about it since the news lady was so impressed with her costume. 

Now that those projects are done I decided to start up on a lace scarf to use up my enchanted forest colored imagination sock yarn I got from my first time going to the Taunton SnB. So far it's coming along nicely
On the non-knitting front, I've moved into my apartment in Danbury, and I've been doing well unpacking. I only have about one box left of stuff to unpack along with some little bits and pieces that I still need to decide where they go. 
I'm really excited about this apartment. It's really nice and the gym is so close I'm hoping that I can keep up the motivation to exercise regularly. I don't have any pictures of the apartment yet since I still have some empty boxes lying around. But hopefully I can finish unpacking by the end of this weekend and get some pictures up!
