A Few Hats

 

I finished two hats early in January. The first one is the huskadoo hat which turned out lovely when it comes to stitch definition. If I made this one again I would go up a needle size since my knitting gets tighter whenever I work with cable patterns. A lovely pattern and a lovely knit for a quick project! Oh and this hat is for ME.

As I mentioned before I wanted to make a backup hat for the replacement hat for my son in law. I chose a muted pumpkin color for the backup to the backup hat. I hand delivered this hat while we were visiting them in Cambridge earlier this month and he loved it.


What are you working on this week?

  1. A nice warm hat is always useful this time of year, and these are very nice! I'm working on a Musselburgh hat for myself. I hope to finish it soon and I hope it fits.

  2. I have jumped on the Musselburgh bandwagon as well... and the knitting is slow but steady! I am happy to have gotten through the fiddly starting bits! :)

  3. Nice hats - love the cables on the one for you. Color of yarn for both is so pretty. I'm still working on my holiday sock (#2). I seem to be doing more stitching than knitting...but that's ok.

  4. I am trying to do some finishing so a hat and sock number two. Then I need to get some sleeves done on a sweater for my grandson. That yarn is so pretty.

  10. The cables are beautiful. I am finishing up a pair of mittens that go with a charity hat - all to be donated. I'm plugging away at my Anker's Cardigan my size. I think you made a pretty pink one.
