Yarn Along: a family of hats

20130101-224242.jpg

DSC_0006 DSC_0011 DSC_0003Here we are finally, all four hats are done. I finished D’s hat just in time for solstice. It ended up being a bit too big so I had to block it which helped. However we both agree that the chunky yarn does not go so well on his head. So I will be taking the hat for myself and knitting another one for him in worsted weight yarn.

As for reading I’ve been re-reading Project Based Homeschooling, Teach Me to do it Myself and of course Taproot still.

What are you reading and knitting now that the holidays are over? If anything… :)

      Karen, I hope the worsted weight works better too. I just need to get over to my yarn shop to see what they have. I’ve learned a lot knitting these four hats. I think I’m finally ready for tiny tea leaves.

    love this KC! i think i would never get my hubby to wear a hat i made…

    • KC says:

      D really want to wear the hat I made but the yarn was too bulky. If he had dreads it might work! Looking to find a nice worsted weight charcoal or dark grey for the re-do.

  10. Yay family hats! You all look adorable!
