Hat contest winner

Hello Everyone!!!! This is the hat contest winner Shannon, in her baby alpaca fiber hat!!! This picture makes me so happy that I think I will have to do another contest soon!!! Right now I am busy working on Christmas presents and orders. You will see me post a few things from time to time, but part of the things I am making I cannot post for obvious reasons.... the people I am giving the present to would see it ahead of time. I think elements of surprise are still important at Christmas, at any time.... later today I will post 2 hats I have been working on. check back soon!

Hat number 20... Turquoise hat

Hello Everyone!!!!! Here is hat number 20. I did a different pattern for this one. I used a knit for one section and pearl for the other section. I think if I extend the hat and make the band smaller I could do a beret type hat....

This project has been so much fun. I hope you have enjoyed it as much as I have. Thanks for following my project and for giving me suggestions for things I can do to improve the hats as well as ideas for things you want to see on my blog. I m going to post these hats to my etsy store tomorrow so check it out in a few days. www.vtwoolgatherer.etsy.com .

I will continue to do projects on my blog... so look for more posts to come.

If you want to order something for a family member for Christmas contact me, I can still take orders.

Hat number 19 Childrens stripe hat

Hello Everyone!!! This is the hat for today!!!! I felt like it was time to knit some more childrens hats, and so you will see some more of those on my blog even after the hat project......Check back tomorrow for hat number 20!!!!

Hat number 18... Blue Todler hat with buttons!!

Hello Everyone!!!! One of my blog followers asked me to make a todler hat for today, so I have done this. I thought I would make another hat from the blue yarn that everyone liked so much!!!! This one would fit a small todler maybe 1-2 years old. Tomorrow there will be a childrens hat posted that is tanish ( is this a word???) brown and cream colored. Can you believe I have already knitted 18 hats so far!!!

Hat 17 Knitted Alpaca Hat

Hello Everyone... This hat is made from a alpaca yarn, I liked it so much as a knitted hat that I just left it that way. This hat is really really light and super warm... I like it so much I think I am going to make one for myself to take with me for Christmas vacation!!! Only 3 more hats for the project... What do you want to see me make next???

Hat number 16, Day 16

Hello Everyone!!! Thanks for participating in the Free hat contest, and for sharing my blog information with your friends and family on your facebook pages. I announced the winner on my facebook, but I will announce it here also. Shannon Rothe Naugle has won the free hat from yesterdays post!!! Congratulations Shannon!!!! Shannon has asked me to make either a green or a turquoise hat for hat number 20, so be on the lookout for that!! I spent today adding extras to a bunch of the hats from previous days, I will post pictures of these on here when I get a chance to get some pictures!!! Too busy knitting!!! I took a readers suggestion and I made a scarf to go with this one!! I am also going to make some gloves and I am trying to figure out how to make a snowflake for one of the white hats.... any ideas?? One of my readers said to outline it in silver.... I am trying to figure out how to do this. Only 4 more hats.... I am going to miss making hate everyday, i guess I will have to think about a new project after this.... any ideas?? What do you want to see me make?
