One Skein Scarf



Here is my one skein scarf from the Happy Hookers Stich n Bitch book. Overall easy although I had a little trouble with the shells on the short ends of the scarf. I used Lion Brand Wool Ease and whatever hook the pattern said. I did have some yarn leftover. I love this scarf. I made one for my mother and another for one of my son's teacher. Here is the pattern: http://www.patonsyarns.com/pattern.php?PID=2448 Pattern is free you just have to become a member on the Paton's website. My oldest is modeling it since I don't know how to set my camera up on timer. He is going to hate me when he gets older. ha ha.

Matching Hats



I decided to make my oldest a matching hat with his brother. I used this pattern http://www.angelscrochet.com/patterns/mountainpat.php I think I used an H hook so it is a little small for Alex who is almost 3. It fits my youngest a lot better. I used Caron Perfect Match. I love to put them in matching outfits. See previous post for Grady's hat. It is the SLK baby hat. Those things are great.

Pumpkin Hat



Well better late than never. I made this in the fall for my youngest son. In case you think I favor the younger one over the older that is not the case. The older one likes to take his hats off and toss them to the ground. I used Caron Perfect Match in orange and green with an H hook. I used the SLK baby hat pattern and then added my own curly q. http://susan.kraus.net/pages/pattern5.html
