March Mad Hatter - and one scarf

March was a successful hat knitting month - here they are modeled by Raina - highschooler, actor and musician extraordinaire.  Hopefully she will have forgotten about them by the time Christmas rolls around, so her gifts will be somewhat of a surprise!

Pink Messenger Cap from Stitch and Bitch Nation - with one strand of Cascade 220

Straun, by Yosolda

Tweed Messenger Hat from Stitch and Bitch Nation.  I used two strands of yarn, pink Cascade 220 and a fingering weight hand dye from Briar Rose fibers.

Fountain Hat by Katie Himmelberg from the fingering weight Briar Rose Fibers yarn.

Spiral Conch Hat - great for a little one.

And finally the Rainy Day Scarf, delicious in Malabrigo! 

Happy April to everyone!!

February FO's

Happy February 29th!  Earlier, I had posted the unfelted version of the Bev Galaskas' clogs, so here is what they look like after felting.  I wasn't sure how the embroidery would look, but I'm pretty happy with the way they came out.  Will be perfect for one of the men in my family for Christmas.

 I was able to finish the calla lily bag which is now ready for felting.  

In between knitting and knitting and knitting on the bag, I added the messenger cap from Stitch and Bitch Nation, just to break up the knitting and knitting and knitting on the bag.  The cap was such a fun project, I decided that I will do more hats in March!
