This weekend, I finished the fourth of four Preemie Hats for Jeanne and Chelle’s K3tog Preemie Hat Extravaganza (yes, a little late: the story of my life, and I blame the altered mental state induced by the Shetland Seas Shawl (please do follow the link and see the big reveal if you haven’t already!).
The big cat was not amused.
“I can’t believe it’s that time again already. Where’s that kitten? Isn’t it her turn?”
Don’t worry, all hats were washed and no cats were harmed, other than dignity, during the course of this post.
Here are three hats: the fourth was finished after prime daylight hours.
“At least she’s not making me try them all on.”
The three shown are from my “Grow With Me Baby Hat” (free) pattern, and the fourth one is a K2P2 ribbed hat, a la the Toe (Cast) Sock.
Speaking of the Shetland Seas Shawl:
my folks stopped by yesterday afternoon to drop something off on their way somewhere, and I dragooned my father into taking a couple quick shots of the shawl outside, in working shawl position. (I was all ready, as I wore it to church that morning.) So here it is, in the wild.
And later I went to try to experiment with standing on a stool in our upstairs bathroom. With rather amusing results, at least I was thinking so at the time.
Maybe I’d better work on my mirror technique a bit more….
