Here's the one that really takes the cake. I love the process of knitting and crocheting and give nearly all of my items away to friends and family or charity. I always have some kind of a project that I'm working on (OK, 2, 3, 4 maybe 5 projects) and last winter I really got into making hats and they were turning out really nice. I gave one to a co-worker for his wife and he said she really enjoyed it. She enjoyed it so much that he asked if I could make her another one. Sure thing. I had a few of them already made up so I brought 3 of them in so she could take her pick.
The next day he told me that his wife really liked the hats. Maybe he misunderstood that I only meant to give her one, but no big deal. I would have given the others to someone else anyway, so I just let it stand. Then a couple of days later he tells me the "funniest" thing. One of their dogs liked one of the hats so much that they are letting him keep it in his bed. WTH!!! I didn't intend for any of them to become dog toys. Not counting the cost of the yarn, I spent several hours making each one of those hats.
I didn't say anything then, but even if I've got hats stacked to the ceiling, they will never get another one of them.
