Hats and scarves and hats and scarves....

Now I'm  singing  "boots and pants and boots and pants..." like Maxwell, the Geico pig...
Anyway....
My neighbor, whom I keep wanting to invite on a GNO, asked if I could knit up some hats and scarves for her daughters.  So I searched Pinterest.com, Ravelry.com, etc for  FREE patterns... Mind you, this was early last December, so I was itching to knit some cowls. Instead, I found these two cabled hats that I love, and then translated both patterns into scarves too. Both are Lion Brand Yarns in Jiffy (100% Acrylic.)  Bella's hat and scarf is in Silver Heather.  Snappy hat and scarf is in Dark Grey Heather.  


I actually liked Bella's hat so much, I made one for myself with some scrap yarn I had leftover from another project.  (It looks pointy in the pic, which I don't like. But it isn't pointy once you get it on!)

Knitted cuff

I've been loving the look of cuffs for awhile know. Finally made the connection that I could knit my own. Sometimes I can't see the forest for the trees! Again, found the free pattern on Ravelry.com

Tangerine & Tweed

Perhaps I'll just work backwards and post newest to oldest….this is my latest project.  "Tangerine & Tweed!"  I love it.  It's a cowl knitted using an entrelac pattern I found on Ravelry.com.  (Free pattern here.)  That's my son.  (He's going through that phase where they think they look cooler in pictures if they aren't smiling.  SMH.)
