2003 Knit Projects

'Flower Washcloths' 12-29
Based on this knitty pattern I added a hood (as another rectangle) and did it all in the Bernat soft Boulce med. blue and angel fish.

'Elven Slippers' 12-29-03
I found this pattern through an online group. Using 'pattons twister lime' which had been a gift I modified the pattern giving it a slightly more 'mary jane' look. Yes they are tacky, but they are extremely cozy!

'Devil Hats' 12-26-03
I made too many hats this holiday season!! These hats though were fun. I used Bernat 'so soft' and trendsetter metal eyelash yarn, and a pom pom maker. Again, no pattern.

Poncho 12-08-03
Based on this knitty pattern I used some soft bernat denim yarn to make this. The variation on the pattern is the length, and the fringe.

Red Hat 11-19-03
Plain acrylic yarns mixed with some 'fun fur' because I wanted to make something a little punky and just a little weird. This had no pattern, just a standard k1p1 rib.

Baby Blanket
My first big pattern I got from a LYS newsletter that I made for a very fabulous and pregnant friend.

Booties
The first pattern I ever followed was for a gift for a friend's expected baby. Using such small needles (after size 8s for scarves) and fine detailing nearly broke me, but the end result was well worth it.

Hats!
Lots and lots of hats. I like Hats. They are fabulously easy.
I make all my hats out of a ribbed pattern. I use primary colors for the most part, and cotton/acrylic blends that are as soft as humanly possible. Soft hats are a must! Details such as ear flaps, and ‘kitty ears’ are crocheted on.
