Hats x 3


Over the past week or so I've been spending my evenings with my knitting needles in hand and have churned out these three hats (all of which will be going in the Christmas present box)....



More stash reduction!  Made with Paton's Canadiana yarn - Pattern is the Sandoval Hat and can be found HERE.  The grey hat will end up being accompanied by a pair of fingerless gloves and a masculine cowl.  Details will follow as I get them done!

Today your quote is from Nelson Mandela...."No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion.  People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite"

  1. Hi MA, thanks for the links. I've been thinking of what I might do to use up somescraps...well, actually I have yards to use up...but I really like the tote! My Embroidery for Crazy Quilting class is tomorrow and your blog is in my resource list! Thanks for the help while I was in the planning stages.

  4. How true this quote is. Those needles are whipping up oodles of pretties, aren't they. Sweet hats. I too, rather love Eeyore. He always seems to have the sweetest expression.

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
