Pattern: Baby Hat from One Skein
Yarn: Pink acrylic from the stash
Needles: US 5
Gauge: 21st/4"
Date Completed: May 17, 2007
Comments: Cute, simple little baby hat. I like the pattern around the bottom edge, and it's encouraged me to go through some of my pattern stitch books to look for some other cute edgings for baby hats.
This hat is going to be donated to the Milford Hospital.
Pattern: Basic hat - CO 65, worked in ribbing for 1", worked straight for about 3 more inches, decreased evenly (starting with every 8 stitches) every other row.
Yarn: Leftover Paton's SWS
Needles: US 7
Dates: May 7-8 2007
Comments: Still in love with this yarn. And the way the decreases are worked in pink on the top makes me think of a flower. This hat is also earmarked for charity.
Pattern: Caps for Kids Swirled Ski Cap from Knitting For Peace
Yarn: Wool-Ease from the stash
Needles: US 7 & 8
Dates: May 2007
Comments: A cool hat pattern, with some interesting variations possible (every section a different color, all in one color, etc.). I hated weaving in all the ends! It would have been better if I had figured out how to carry the non-used color up the side as I worked.
First time with a pom-pom maker, and I got a little carried away, so it came out a little big.
I used Elizabeth Zimmerman's sewn cast off after I did the ribbing, and it came out a little loose, so next time I think I'd do a normal cast off.
I also would do it on smaller needles next time - I felt the fabric was a little loose.
