Loved Yoga Socks. |
I have not forgotten my blog, I have just been very busy with Christmas knitting. However, I did have three knitted items which were gifted on St. Nicks Day. I knitted two pair of yoga socks, which were a free pattern I love (http://www.plymouthyarn.com/index.php?nav=cPatterns.freePatterns&pattern_id=000031). The sweet stitch pattern was just fun to knit. I made a pair for myself (http://tempestinapot.blogspot.com/2011/07/i-needed-yoga-socks-because.html) that I just love them to wear around the house. Co-worker Angie said she wanted a pair and my work bff, Cynthia, needed a pair too. Both projects turned out great and I loved the knitting.

Okay back to Angie, she wanted a hat and with trepidation I found the pattern and did the knitting. The end results were not my favorite, I really don't like knitting hats and I think it shows. First hat had issues so I decided to try again. The second hat turned out much better, but trust me on this, it did not make me love hat knitting at all. I have started calling hats, hates. Note to self, STOP knitting hates.

But just look how cute it is! I wore it Wednesday for a classroom I visit every week and the student's were amazed that someone made it.

You look lovely in the hat. and It did turn out nice the second time. Hats/hates are mysteries of size I just knit and hope for the best. I guess just my control issues are showing.
