Emergency Hat!

My friend, Trisha Paetsch, has a really fun pattern; the Emergency Hat.  It comes in 3 sizes and is knit from the brim to the crown in a pretty lace pattern.

Scarlett, my little bunny :)

SOS Shawl

Ok, almost a month since I have posted here? Really??  Where did that month go???  Oh I guess I got a part time job, and designing  a tiny bit, homeschooling, yeah, that's where it went :)

I finished my SOS shawl! I am not a huge shawl wearer, but I totally envy India's Simplicity Shawl.  She wears it around the house and it is so warm and cozy.  When Trisha asked me to test knit this for her I was so excited!  I used Elann's Peruvian Pure Alpaca Worsted in Pewter Gray and Dark Gray for the bottom edging on 4mm needles.  I could have used a 4.5mm needle, but this is fine.

It took me a few weeks in between projects but I found it easy to stop and restart.

  The patterns are easy to memorize and see where you are just from looking at your knitting.  India is modelling for me :)  You can find the pattern here:  SOS Shawl by Trisha Paetsch.  Happy knitting!
