Pay no attention to that thumping noise you hear in the background

Deb can't come to the blog right now.  And I swear it's not because I have her tied up in such a way so that her hands are churning out fabulous knitwear.  Honest.*

She did however, request that I** post here to let you know that despite her blog silence of late, she has been knitting. 

It would seem that our darlin has been on a hat binge:

First up, is a green and white Foliage hat:

Next is a white Junior sized one:

 

And finally a tam-style version

 Lovely stuff!

She also did up a couple of Unoirginal Hats, and according to her ravelry notes, she did this one in the morning

 

And this one in the evening

 

Seriously Deb, you're making the rest of us look lazy.

One more thing before I go...in her last post she mentioned that she is going to be an instructor at Sock Summit.  When I saw Deb this past weekend she called the instructor's list a "Who's Who with a Who's that?" referring to herself.

Um...let's check that shall we? 13 published designed, including 5 in Knitty and hello? One in a BOOK.  A book ladies and gentleman. Not to mention various other honours that have been bestowed on her.  I know I'm her biggest fan, but I'm not the only one.

You totally deserve to be on that list.  You are among your peers.  Don't forget that.

*Deb is actually away with family right now. Send her love.

Sending love to the Debster.

The new hats are sooooo cute. I think that the adorable models really help. Seriously - you could put a flour sack on those girls and "ta-dah", adorable!

I wish I had her speed and brilliance in the knit craft/art.
Hope you are well Deb! Good job on filling in, Lesley! Now I am off to visit your blog.
