Since it was a little to big I felted it lightly. This is the prefelted version. The felted one you can find on Flickr.

The Hats of 08

2008 was the year of the hats. it was all I could do later in the year, when the global crisis was taking shape. Some hats I loved so much, I repeated more than once... I gave most of them to "needy" heads. Lots of knitting from my stash. Alpaca stash, Noro stash. Lots of soft Malabrigo, and behold, my own handspun!

There are still a few days left, will I knit any more hats this year??????

pumpkin!

I thought that a pumpkin hat should really be a beret since its shape is closer to a pumpkin; and sure enough, here's the pumpkin beret I whipped up for my little niece. I hope you like it and mostly that she does too :-)
Knitted in the round with soft DK merino/acrylic yarn.

December Lights Tam

Finished: December Lights Tam, originally uploaded by litlnemo.

I finished this a few weeks ago but forgot to post it here until now. :) This is the December Lights Tam from the Holiday issue of Interweave Knits. The yarn is mostly Knit Picks Palette, but I used Baby Ull for a couple of colors. Even though Baby Ull isn't 2-ply, it worked fine and the gauge was the same. I love the way this turned out!
