A Knitter's Revenge

I met up for lunch with a dear friend, Layne, whom I haven't seen enough of lately.  We ate at a great restaurant with an ocean view, and a view of the yarn store we both love-- The Salty Sheep in Swansboro, NC.  We talked about knitting, family, knitting for family, and scads of other things.

While we were talking about people who request knitting, we had the following conversation:

Me:  She asked me knit a hat for the baby.  Not just any hat, but a specific one that matched her nursery.
Layne:  Did you do it?
Me:  Yes, but I used acrylic.
