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?

Thirdly... it can be worn by either a man or woman as I have tried to demonstrate here. This is the very last day to post on your wall to win the free hat.

Hat number 14... Blue Sky Hat

Hello Everyone!!!! Todays hat is a mens hat but could just as easily be a womens hat. It is made from Andes wool and is soft and warm. I was lucky to get my husband and my cat-baby to pose for me tonight!!! Tomorrows hat is the free hat for the giveaway. I will post it tomorrow but I will post the winner on Tuesday. Remember the winner gets to choose what color hat I make for the 20th hat!!!

Hat number 13... I'm dreaming of a white Christmas

Hello Everyone!!!! Tonight I knitted hat number 13!!! One more week for the project....

This hat is made from fishermans wool. I usually only use this wool to make scarves and other types of things but tonight I thought I would try to make a hat from it!!! What do you think? This one has no band on it. I think I will make another scarf to go with this for when I put it up on Etsy. I would like to use dyes on these someday....What do you think. Any suggestions?

The Most Photographed time of the year... hat 12

Hello Everyone..... Let me explain. I was inspired by a piece Ellen Degeneres did on her website about " Worst photos people paid for." There were all these pictures of bad 80's hair... so this is my homage to bad 80's hair but cool current hats!!!!!! More tomorrow!!
