I WANT TO KNIT EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD
But I would have to rob several yarn stores first. TT_TT
I am at that stage of knitting self-discovery in which one realizes that most patterns are within the realm of one's own ability and, if yarn was readily available and not RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE, one could knit everything on the internet. *sigh* I don't know what I would do without knitting blogs.... ACK! I digress! The point of this post was to show off my 1337 skilz. *gags* <----- *promises never to use such language EVER again*
I finished this today! (Not a REAL tam. A real tam is on the agenda, though)

Side View:
<----- It is oddly shaped because I have to BLOCK it. I hate blocking (so BORING)
This took me two days. I need more sleep/less addicting hat patterns. I am SO ADDICTED, though. I've already cast on my next hat (same hat, different fair isle pattern) even though I tied of this one THIS MORNING. I am SO DOOMED. But at least my eternal damnation is full of wool and variegated yarn of awesomeness.
I got home today and immediately started searching for more patterns (Like I said, me=hopeless addict). I found these!
