Hats Galore

Ten hats down in record time! These little guys are going to the 2009 Sock Summit with Dynaknits as part of a donation for Afghani children. I used the "Rollin Baby Beret" pattern by Wooly Wormhead. Using bulky yarn and a higher cast on count created several different child/teen sizes. This pattern just rolls off the needles and I love it!

Lamb's Pride Bulky
New Zealand Wool

Eco Wool

Carodan Farm Wool purchased at Montpelier 2007

And this...I can finally post it. It's a Tunisian tradition to give a bridal couple a pillow and with that in mind, Dynaknits and I gave this to Jadielady and her groom (it's their wedding colors) on Saturday.
Next up...Jadie's wedding photos!
