Week 8 (two months yes!!)

Another busy week behind me, and another hat in the shop. This one is similar to one I made before in a different color. I'm trying to make more of an effort to make "collections" for my Etsy shop, to create a more cohesive look, rather than have just a bunch of random stuff in there.
We'll see how it works out.


I also made a pair of wristwarmers similar to these:
But unfortunately it has been dark and gloomy for the past week, and I haven't been able to take any pictures. Today is the first sunny day we've had in almost a week!!
I know it's only the beginning of March, and am sure that winter isn't over yet, but I can't help but long for sunny warm days that come in spring.
I think my computer desktop is making me think spring as well ;)

But for now, time to get back to work. I'll have to settle for daydreaming about bike riding, going to the park, and taking long walks for no reason ;)

Week 6

My finished hat! My first foray into knitting on a circular needle is officially a success. It's a great light hat, and will be perfect once it starts to warm up to the 30's and 40's (hopefully soon!). I only wish I had made it a little longer. Although it covers my ears, it could be a tad bit longer. Oh well, now that I know how to do it I think I'll be making more in other colors, and with other buttons :)
The pattern shows other ways of changing out the brim with different stitches, so there are a variety of ways to make this hat!

I'm back to crochet this week, and thinking ruffles...stay tuned!!
