Thanks! I know, it happens to me all the time. I look at something and think ‘how cool’ and then kids scream and… 
By the way, I am testing three patterns on Ravelry now, finally took the plunge It was super scary to post first but it’s exciting too.
And I am working on the forth now, and you will be the first to see a new crazy purple hat I thought about asking all of you in the General Knitting forum if you are in a Free Pattern Testers Group on Ravelry… just cause I know you and you are sweet and won’t bite But then I decided to let you know about the correct patterns instead (see above: ‘you are sweet’ part).
They will be released for free anyway to raise awareness and I plan to post in Charity Knitting together with local programs info, free patterns, and other relevant info.
