Under the Wire FO!!

Whew, just in time for the big day, I just finished my Knitty Hallowig, in Hunter Orange Bernat acrylic, for the knitalong. No size problems, no problems of any kind (besides procrastination). Love it.

As soon as I cast off, I wore it like this to the coffee shop next door, where an unfamiliar but attractive guy says to me, "Velma, right?" and I reply "Yes! But sorry, I've forgotten your name!", to which he responds, "Oh, we've never met; you're supposed to be Velma, from Scooby Doo, right?", which leads me to laugh and tell him "No, my name is actually 'Velma'!" He was flummoxed. It was great. I love Halloween.

Not sure if I'll wear it with my costume for the trick-or-treaters tonight. Either way, Happy Knitting and May Your House Not Be Egged Tonight, from Velma, not Velma.
