What’s Knitting

January 3, 2013

For Christmas I decided to knit Ms. A a hat.  I needed something to do in the evening and this seemed like a good idea.  I started it four days before Christmas but it was a quick enough hat that I finished it the next day.  It comes from this pattern.  I didn’t add the jewels in the eyes or on the nose as I figured they would just come off.  She loved it and wears it around the house and in the snow.

Since I finished that one so quickly I decided to make Mr. J a beard hat.  These are trendy now.  I knitted a hat first and then the beard as another piece.  Originally I connected them to the hat with buttons but it didn’t fit right no matter where I put them.  I sewed it on and it worked much better for him.  I can’t find the pattern I used for this one though.  It was hard to find one that I liked too.

When I finished this hat Rich was asleep.  I put it on and woke him up.  He was quite startled and said not to wear it anymore LOL.

Ms. A wanted to pose with Mr. J.

    Both of those suit them perfectly! I thought about knitting one of those beard hats for my son a couple years ago. Then I realized he has a beard. So I knit a different hat for him.
