(And a lone bootie....)Some of these are left over from a charity sale I participated in last year. Some are knit from various patterns I found at Ravelry or in books. And some are my own (very amateurish) designs.
Some have a fun backstory: see that fisherman's wool square hat with the seed stitch brim and pom pom's? That was knit entirely in the movie theater while watching Pirates of the Caribbean 3 with my kids. :-) That slightly unfinished Marley hat from Itty Bitty Hats in the lower corner? That was knit in the smallest newborn size - I had to give it a wash before finishing it because my neice had spilled on it, and it grew large enough to fit my six year old! It's acrylic - who knew acrylic could grow in the wash?
Anyway, one hat I really like is the red Christmas hat(s) right in the middle of the photo. My sister had asked if I could knit a Christmas-y hat for a friend of hers who was due with a new baby last December. I pulled out some scrap yarn and was very pleased with the final result:
Nisse Hat - Pattern coming soon....
I'll post the pattern next week (although even an extremely new knitter can clearly see this is not really a pattern, per se, as much as it is a simple tube with tassels sewed onto the corners, LOL).
Have a great weekend!
