off topic post

A couple of weeks ago I decided it was time to begin to knit, with an eye towards having to sit still far from a kitchen or machine shop.

Over the past couple of days, I made a “monmouth” type cap. Started Wednesday, finished today.

I know it is not quite accurate to the surviving known example, but I do not know enough about knitting to resolve that. In time, perhaps.

Many thanks to those who have taught me the skills which led to my ability to knit.
