Day 6: Still more yarn

[Posting a day behind again]

It's still too freaking hot. I went outside in the late afternoon to work on yarn, when the yard was in shade, with a wet towel around my neck and a bunch of ice pops in an insulated bag.

I detangled a few more tangles in the yarn I worked with on Day 5, and got it tamed into a ball:

Then, I wound that yarn into a skein for washing:

Then, I wound 2 more skeins of yarn into washings skeins; these were a lot easier to wind, because they were pretty much brand new skeins that had been donated and left in a zip top bag:

After dinner, I knitted the final 7 rows on the current baby hat,

and finished the hat by closing the top and tightening the brim.
