I had a rough weekend, and had less time to do crafty things than I wanted.
Day 7 was a day of preparing. I washed a bunch of yarn, because I'm almost out of the yarn I use for baby hats, and washed a few other skeins as well:

While I was washing, I discovered that I hadn't tied up the skeins as thoroughly as I should have, so I might have fun turning this yarn into center pull balls.
I also pulled some small frames and foam core in preparation to frame some stitched pieces (not pictured).
Day 7, I knitted 15 rows on a new baby hat; I'm using the ends of two skeins of yarn, so this hat will me two-toned:
