Striped Hat for Michael

I knit this new hat for Michael using two strands of yarn held together for a warmer, cozier feel.

It looks great!  Enjoy!

Finished Earflap Hat




The braided trim ended up being a little too short to do long ends that hang off the earflaps (like in TC's hat).  I could have added them on separately, but we decided it looked more juvenile that way.  So, it's done!

Mittens Update


I reworked the top of the mittens--much better now!  

Jim's Earflap Hat


Jim requested an earflap hat for this winter.  I love when he requests hats--it makes me happy that he likes what I make!  This is another free pattern by Susan B. Anderson (am I her biggest fan or what?).  Click HERE for the pattern.  I still have to add the red braided trim.  I have it ready, but need to pick up some thread.

Baby Mittens

I just finished a pair of thumbless mittens for Drew.  The pattern is free on the Spud & Chloe blog; click HERE.  The pattern called for them to be mix and match, but I like things to match. :)  I'm not sure if I'm wild about the color combo, though...what do you think?  Should I take out the red and make the tips green instead?


I'm thinking of making a striped hat to go with the set.
