Here a hat, there a hat, somebody finish a hat

I started a cute little hat based on Fetching using Ella Rae bamboo silk(hat on left). Very nice yarn but very slippery. Not great to cable with so naturally I cast on another hat. The second hat is Tubey made with Vanna's Choice. Very fast knit. It quickly caught and passed up the first little hat.

It is ready to be delivered on Sunday to the new baby boy in my church. The blue looks very washed out in this picture but at least I found something to put it on.



This is the beginning of Cupcake for Addison. I love the pattern and its very easy but with cabling every 4 stitches every row.....its rather slow going. I am making myself set it aside until I finish the fetching. I need the metal needles because this Reynolds yarn sticks to the Comfort Zone Needles something fierce.

Last up is the first one I started. Spiral Hat done in Dream in Color worsted colorway Jade. This is for my head and gets a few rows done here and there. This is the 4th hat I've done in this pattern. Its such a fun and easy knit!

I think its obvious that I started the year out by starting too many things at once. Somebody stop me if they see me casting anything on!

It's hard to have restraint with hats. They're so fun and quick!
