This is the very first hat I made for V. When I started I wasn’t sure who would get the hat, but when it was completed it was clear that he is the only one who could wear it. The rest of us have much larger heads.
It’s made with two strands of worsted weight yarn, both medium blue. For the stripe, one of the strands was exchanged for a light blue yarn.

I then proceeded to make a larger hat for L to go with her scarf. This one is made of two strands of multicoloured (rainbow colours) yarn.

…and with 3 kids, it’s important that everyone gets a hat, so I had to hurry to make this hat for A. His hat has one strand of rainbow coloured yarn and one strand of light yellow yarn. He opted for a pom-pom and a rounded top.

Every cottage needs a few handknitted afghans. Here is a box-stitched afghan, knit in oatmeal and taupe worsted weight yarn (needle size 5.5 mm). It’s knit in 5 strips, each 6 squares long, and then stitched together. I opted to not add any tassels, so that it’s more comfortable if sleeping under it.
Completed: Dec 2006
