this week
Posted in finished objects, knitting on Oct 28th, 2007
I finished two hats this week. I loved knitting both of them, the patterns, the yarn the finished product, loved the whole process. I took pictures of them at the LYS, they have these great wooden heads for displaying hats.
Hat the First . . .
pattern: Odessa by Grumperina
yarn: Debbie Bliss Cashmerino DK
needles: Clover Bamboo
cast-on: Oct 20, 2007 cast-off: Oct 22, 2007
notes: I ended up running out of yarn 5 rows from the end, it happens. Luckily I had purchased 2 ball of yarn so I was able to finish without a run to the yarn shop. The beads were purchased at Pacific Fabric. This is the second time I have knit Odessa and it doesn’t disappoint.
Hat the Second . . .
pattern: Spring Cap by Woolly Wormhead
yarn: Frog Tree Alpaca Sport
needles: Clover Bamboo
cast-on: Oct 25, 2007 cast-off: Oct 27, 2007
notes: Another quick knit. I held the yarn doubled and it gave me a nice warm fabric for this hat, although it has a lacey pattern it should still be quite warm with the nice fuzzy alpaca. I will need to make one for myself soon.
