I haven’t been slack on posting what I have been making there just hasn’t been a lot happening and what was made I can’t show just yet anyway.
ACQUISITIONS
While I did get these yarns quite a while ago I never actually showed them, so I thought I would share their gorgeousness :). They have yet to tell me what they want to be. I think something for the Little Miss

F O’S
My secret Squirrel project. Matching hats for friends who are big Pies fans and expecting twins.
I used the Baby Striped Hat pattern by Valentina Strokina. It’s a free pattern on Ravelry. I only did the stripes up until the decreases started. Because the bottom rolls up slightly I didnt start the stripes until row 6 on the white hat and Row 9 on the black one.
I have actually never knitted beanies this small before and it was all done on DPNs. Usually I have been able to use circular needles before swapping to DPNs when decreasing.
