Last fall I knit a hat for my mountaineering cousin, who was planning a trip to climb a mountain in Mexico. Apparently this gave the hat a taste for adventure, because it was recently spotted on Aconcagua in Argentina, the highest mountain in the Americas!
The other guy in the picture, the one not wearing an awesome knitted hat, is my uncle (although not my cousin's dad... another one. I have a ton of uncles.) I'm glad I have such an outdoorsy family.
And if that isn't enough to swell my pride, the bunny I knit for my sister's birthday, now named Rupert, has taken to the trails in California. Most recently he visited Yosemite National Park.
Rupert apparently loves to hide all over my sister's apartment, waiting to pop out at the moment she least expects it. He even has a Facebook page to track his travels!
