Two Free Hat Patterns

This is a new hat I finished.

It's based on Turn a Square by brooklyntweed and can be found on the Ravelry store

I added little cats I found used in a sweater in the winter 2007 Interweave Knits.


I just wanted to practice my newly acquired Fair Isle skills.
I've just put another Turn a Square hat on the needles but the one will have the strips that will show the squares.

This little Moe baby hat is an old one, made with moda dea kickx yarn.


It's very soft for baby heads.

Side note: This is my 40th post!

The Chalk Dust Knitters Go Fair Isle

Some of The Chalk Dust Knitters took Fair Isle Classes at stix-n-stitches with Sunday. She was so patient with us, a perfect teacher. Here we are busy at work.






The project we are working on is nordic-headband by Heidi Nyberg

We left the class well on our way in the pattern.








I finished my homework and think it looks great for my first fair isle project.




I love Fair Isle!
