and she’ll start knitting š§¶
The other day I was frogging a little something that I nearly finished 40 years ago. Some might ask why didn’t you finish it? Well I’m a touch bigger than I was 40 years ago and, frankly, the sleeves were very inpractical!
But the yarn won’t be wasted! I have started knitting childrens’ hats for Knit and Natter. And the beauty of this tale is the hats are being made using the same pattern book š although I might add a pom pom š

Plenty of frogged yarn so I should get to make lots of woolly hats.
Woolly wishes,

Brilliant! what lovely yarn. And what a good idea to knit hats! they’ll
be lovely and warm, and quick to make too.

Can’t for the life of me remember where I got it from. Possibly Hayfield? It feels like a wool mix so hopefully nice and cosy š

That’s impressive to hang onto a project for 40 years.

It only survived because it had been put in the back of a cupboard at my parents house š

Love the cabled hat, I’m a cable fanatic and love knitting them when I get the chance, cables are relaxing to knit. I love lace, but it’s not relaxing, fun but not relaxing :P. I have found a ton of cabled hats on Etsy, I probably have more patterns than I could knit in a life time, to go along with the fiber for spinning I’ve accumulated that is S.A.B.L.E (stash acquired beyond life expectancy) š

I know love a cable. I don’t have the patience for lace though. š¤

Start with a easy lace pattern like the fan and feather, it’s just a 4 row pattern with one row of yo’s :). That one is very easy to follow and memorize.
