December Photo Project: Day 11
This will make your house smell awesome.
The second of 3 hats requested. I had a tiny thumbnail of a picture of something she liked, so I wrote up a little pattern for this hat.
It’s kind of a funny little hat. Again, I don’t have a baby head to model this on, so our coffee canister will have to do…again.
I’ll post the pattern below.
Double Pom-pom Baby hat (Unless you guys can come up with a better name for it!)
Supplies:
Size 4 DPN’s
3 colors of your choice (I used all Vanna’s Choice Yarn)
Pom-Pom maker
Cast on 72 stitches in Purple, join in the round
Rows 1- 8: *Knit 2, Purl 2* Rep to end
(Switch to white)
Row 9-11: Knit to end
Rows 12-14: Purl to end
(Switch to pink)
Rows 15-17: Knit to end
Rows 18-20: Purl to end
(Switch to purple)
Rows 21-23: Knit to end
Rows 24-26: Purl to end
Switch colors every six rows, repeat rows 9-26 two more times (For a total of 9 horizontal ribs)
Bind off all stitches, lay flat and whip stitch closed. Using a pom-pom maker make two pompoms out of the pink and attach to top corners and voila! Enjoy your baby hat.
December Photo Project: Day 8
My guitar, which I am enjoying playing again, since my thumb is nearly healed from when I broke it, while slamming it into my car door several months ago.
So, Knittybutton readers, I need some help. I’ve been working on this pattern for a few days now.
So, what kind of names can you come up with for this pattern? It’s a pretty simple knit-purl pattern, but it almost looks like tiny cables running throughout the pattern.
The only things I can come up with are Harry Potter themed names like “Diagon Alley” or something silly like that…uh, you know, cuz it kind of goes diagonally?
So, if you can give me a good name for this scarf, maybe I will be awesome and send you something in the mail.
