By Request: A Purple Hat
Lucky for me, my daughter loves going to the yarn store. Twice as lucky, my local yarn shop owner (Myra at Woolbearers) doesn't mind my daughter. Amiya loves to run around the shot and point out all the pretty colors. On our drive to the shop a few ... |

Little Pixey Cap
I'm quite happy with how this little hat came out -- and in fact, I'm wondering how it would look as an adult hat... maybe I'll make one for my sister Di. I'm thinking that if I follow the same pattern with a worsted weight yarn on size 7 needles... and ... |

Braided Cable Hat
Rochelle asked if I could make a hat for her aunt who's fighting cancer. I was more than happy to oblige. After she taught her Friday morning yoga class, we met up and walked over to The Needleworks Barn. We found some GREAT baby alpaca yarn that will ... |

A Felted Alpaca Hat
Felting is scary. You spend all this time knitting an item (a hat, a bag, some slippers, even a bunny...) and then you take it, put it in the washing machine on hot and purposefully shrink it. But that whole time while its in ... |

The UGA hat wins a game... and Jess gets new shoes!
OK... so the hat really had nothing to do with it. But it had its debut at the UGA vs Georgia Tech game this past weekend -- and they won! It was close to the end -- but not near as close as the Utah/BYU game... I can't believe that BYU actually ... |

The final UGA intarsia hat
My first attempt at Blake's UGA hat was just sad. The logo honestly took up a quarter of the hat. The good thing was, I learned a lot from the hat. I got the pattern right for the guage of the yarn - but I made the pattern itself too big. When I ... |

Lotsa fair isle hats
long overdue: I got on a hat kick at the end of spring and made a bunch of fair isle hats with some Wool Ease yarn that I bought (one skein each of Heather, Dk Gray, and Maroon). It was neat to create different designs and see how they turned out. Here ... |

Rosehip hat
So... I couldn't resist making something with one of those cool stitch patterns I got out of my new book purchase. I really liked the "rosehip" stitch. It's quick to knit, and very delicate looking. So this turned out to be a good project while we drove ... |

Fair Isle Hat, knit in the round
I love knitting for someone. I love taking this big ball of colored yarn and making something you can wear out of it... something someone can enjoy and keep themselves warm. I love putting a bit of me in the knitting -- making my own pattern, my own ... |
