Matching mittens for Ben, going in the mail today. Cooper already has his.
Just some cute little green acrylic socks. I will sell these as well as the rest of what I am showing you and donate the proceeds to my Charity which is to help build a church for my friends in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania.
This is an adult sized hat made from Plymouth Yarns Boku and Cascade wool. It works up like Noro.
This hat is from Cascade wool and silk.
Just a cute little hat from my stash. This is a very fast knit. Took about two hours at the most to complete.
Acrylic Penguin hat. Still needs a pom pom on the top. I do not usually add them, but I think this one needs it, as well as eyes on the penguins. (Sold the Penguins today, December 30th. $25.00)
This is the Plymouth Yarn Boku again. It is 95% wool and 5% silk.
Cascade wool and silk. The silk in this hat and the blue one is from the same skein. It comes from Nepal. A woman there figured out how to take scraps of silk from a dress factory and spin it together to make yarn. She now receives proceeds from its sale.
My thanks goes to my little model, Olivia. She is always so willing to help me.

I've been in a sewing mood lately so not much knitting but I have a bunch of projects ready to go and they are mostly hats. You've inspired me! Yours are wonderful. I shouldn't pick a favorite but I really like the penguin one and the ones you made for your grandsons.
I've been wanting to learn how to knit! I just love all the hats you made and the socks are adorable, too! What wonderful gifts!
Ooohh, those hats are so nice! Is the one you made for me in one of those pictures?
Your knitting is beautiful. I love the Plymouth Yarn Boku one..the color pattern reminds me of the northern lights. Those green socks are so cool! Merry Christmas!
you're really really good!
Oh, Those are beautiful! Now you have me with startitus! 5 Projects OTN 3 quilts ready and now seeing these make me want to start hats!
I saw these on FB - just LOVE that penguin one!
Santa brought me a crocheting book, so we'll see. Life is getting in the way of sitting down to try it. Hopefully soon!
Happy New Year!
