Stash busted: Slouchy Hat

Modelled by offspring as I didn't like any of the photos she took of me wearing it :/

Much fun had this evening at SnB in the Old Quarter. We had newbie knitters!

Much kudos to this plucky trio who cast on & knit their microfibre socks off for two causes.

Cause the first – The Big Knit - A fundraising effort by Innocent Smoothies to help make winter warmer for older folks.

Cause the second – The Project 366 Things - Dan got on board with the miniature hat making as one of his 366 things & roped his mates in too.

Delighted they came along as much fun, banter & passing on of skillsets was had. 

Happy crafting folks!

 

Hats a plenty!

A grand stack o' hats !

Raspberry & Yoghurt Fool anyone?

 

Offspring's favourite mini hat: Raspberry Yoghurt

 

Offspring now desires a hat for her normal sized head based on the dinky one above.

*Adds to project queue*

In other crafty news, I am chugging along nicely with the cardigan & shall soon be back to where I frogged from.

Happy crafting folks!

 

Minarets Smoothly Rebuilt

Progress since 2nd frogging

Taking into account the fact that I’ve been out & about, as well as painting a hallway & part of a bathroom, I’m quite happy with this.

Now for the ‘smooth’ part of my blog post……it’s the time of year for the Innocent Smoothies Big Knit. The link will take you to a page explaining the whys & what nots. They have a cool Big Knit Kit & I heartily suggest that you have a look through some of their Hats of the Week.

Anyhow, back to this blog, Hazel, Sarah (Froodie) and I are now on a tiny hat knitting jag.

Behold!

My first little hat

Hat the First!

I have my work cut out to match the effort of my fellow SnB’ers!
