Hat Addiction........

this is my latest addiction!! HATS!

Do I need an intervention?!  Not yet please!

I'm having too much fun!

Hats, hats and more hats!  I see a pattern

and think it needs to be knitted--plenty of

stash yarns to use for these projects.

Recently, one of my favorite hat designers, Woolly Wormhead,

offered free patterns for her blog followers--Join

her Woolly Hat Society--she has some awesome hat patterns.

All Finished!

I could sit and knit her hats all day long-I learn something

new--with this pattern I learned a new cast on method-

alternate cable--gives a nice beginning edge.   I had several balls

of Cumulus leftover from another knit along--Sequential 

is based on Fibonacci sequence.

This fun  Classic Beanie is such an easy knit and

the construction is fabulous!  I'm knitting with yarn that

I bought for another project but never did that project--

Alaska Yarns was the supplier--the yarn is so soft

and easy to knit with

The yarn is "pooling" --that doesn't

bother me--makes for an interesting look.

As I'm knitting with this interesting yarn,

-this looks like a landscape

and the other side of the hat

Finished!  So fun to knit--was afraid I'd messed up

the ending--but all is well--great way to get a

finished hat.

Of course, I've found another hat pattern to

knit....do I dare?!

Origami Knit--the finish on this thing is fascinating! 

And here is the April Hat of the Month:

Finlandia by Paige Buursma

Finlandia is a fitted, worsted-weight beanie that is knitted in the round from the brim to the crown. The repeated tree motif is made from basic lace stitches (K2tog, YO, and SSK).

The designer suggested Malabrigo Yarn--perfect!  It's in my stash!
