ANOTHER BUTTERFLY HAT

Sharing another Butterfly hat I made using two skeins of yarn.  It looks a bit wonky because I had to put something over the head to get the hat to fit.  I need to try and find a larger head form for the adult hats. 

Anyway, I like how this one turned out.  It was more of an experiment since I had never combined two yarns like this before, and I didn't want to carry the yarn, but to knit it into the round, and I managed to catch it up with the stitch in the center of each repeat. 

You can see the variegated yarn in places, but I am learning.  I am going to make another one with a Violet background, and the same variegated yarn for the butterflies. 

I am now in the process of knitting a Valentine heart cloth.  I am learning some new stitches making this cloth, and loving it. 

Hope you like it, and be easy on me as I am still learning. 

Butterfly Hat free Ravelry download

I made this Butterfly hat; a free downloadable pattern at Ravelry.  Here is the link if you are
interested in making one.  It is so easy I am on my second hat without even using the directions.

I love this design, and gifted it to my dear sister in law that is going though chemo.  The hat is so easy, fast, and fun to make.

THINGS I HAVE MADE RECENTLY

New hats I just finished for my SIL that is going through

chemo treatments. 

Crocheted Valentine Hat I just made this

morning.  It has been entered into the

Valentine Theme in my group at Thread_n_Stitches

Yahoo group.  If you come and request to join

you must return the questionnaire filled out, or you

will not be approved to join my group.  I do have people

request that will not return the questionnaire, I supposed

they do not read the home page, or they would know it.

There is a Yahoo logo on the right side of this page

below you can click on and just visit my home page.

We are a private group.

Not sure who will get this hat, or if I will keep it.

It is a paid pattern called Hats for Healing by

Carri Hammett  I really like this design, and

it can be worn by anyone.

These two hats are Chemo hats I made for my youngest

SIL that is going through treatments.

Made this hat and mitten set for my older SIL, and it turned out too big for her. Oh well, as it is said; "It the thought that counts"

The last picture is a scrubby I knitted with the new Red Heart Scrubby thread.  I could not crochet with it, but knit was easy.  I just CO 17 sts, and knit to the end turned and knit until the scrubby was square.

I plan to start another knit hat soon.  I do love to knit. :)

Have a great day!
