Oops... blogiversary and Allie's hat

I'm almost 2 months late, but Dec 2nd was my 7TH blogiversary! Wow! Thanks to anyone who reads here. I am horrible about updating, and kind of boring, so thanks for clicking over anyway. And please comment.... I always feel special when I get a comment!!!

My friend Sarah and I decided to do a hat swap where we each would make a hat for eachothers' daughters! She sent this beautiful crocheted cap with an awesome fabric flower on it:


Isn't it awesome???? I love it!

In return, I sent her this hat:


Pattern: Cheery Scrap Cap
Yarn: Various worsted wool or wool blend yarns
Size: Toddler, but it seems fairly large, so maybe more of a 2T-ish size.


It went quicker than I expected, AND used up a lot of misc partial skeins of yarn! Highly recommend it. I might try a ribbing along the brim next time to keep it from rolling. For full disclosure, here is the inside of the hat:


I carried the yarn as much as I could, so it wasn't as bad as you think to weave in all the ends!

Here's hoping I can keep up all this posting... it's easy when I have so much knitting flying off the needles! That might not be sustainable because a certain daughter of mine seems to not like napping so much lately.... yikes!
