Knitting Projects Up for Grabs

I'm getting close to done with everything in my "for real" knitting queue, including one Secret Project. Does anyone want anything? I make no claims on speed, I think it took me two years to get to doing the squid hat for [livejournal.com profile] kelkyag,, but if it's something for someone's kid, I will certainly attempt to make it sized for the kid at the time it's done rather than the time it's requested. :)

what's an observatory sweater?

I make sweaters for [livejournal.com profile] mjperson to wear at the observatory, since "in winter when the roof is open" requires warm clothes. One of the ones I made for him turned out too small, so [livejournal.com profile] desireearmfeldt yoinked it.

Ah, I get it! I am gradually morphing into an observer myself, so I definitely see the utility of an observatory sweater.
