I finished this little hat last night too - I was busy!!! I only had to sew up the seam, and then I got started on another one. This hat is from Sirdar pattern No.1711.

Jean's Facinator
I made this last night. I am getting the hang of doing these now without the aid of superglue!!! What a mess this can be, I get stuck to feathers and feathers get stuck to other feathers!!! So - it is much better to do without. I hope she likes it!!!

Pink to make the boys wink!!
This is my latest finished hat. It is a sirdar pattern with 6 designs. I could quite hapily knit each one!! I have knit a couple before i joined Ravelry and they disappeared into the baby world before I got a pic. I will be posting a few more from this pattern I think, they are so easy!!!

Thomas & William
These are 2 little hats for my friends nephews - age 6m and 2m. I don't have anyone to model them! The pattern is Sirdar Fair Isle/Snuggly. It is a great pattern - Jumper, Hat and Blanket. I have knit the Jumper & Hat before and I was very satisfied with the results. I stuck to the proper yarn for the jumper & hat, but this time I just used up a couple of odds and ends, but I am still pleased with the results.

Mystery Cardigan
I have finished this little cardigan and it was a bit of a mystery because I only have page 3 & 4 of the pattern - no photo - so I had no idea how it should look. It is a Patons pattern - the date printed is 1994. The first little boy to be born in the family/friend circle will be getting this as a little pressie!!
Antique Magazine
I bought this magazine with a bundle of old patterns. I think it is quite a find. The date is sometime in 1932. The projects are fitting with the era and there are a few interesting adverts too!

REVERSIBLE SHELL DISHCLOTH
This is the first dishcloth I have ever made!!! I didn't think anyone made dishcloths until I joined groups and Ravelry. The pattern is reversible and would be easily adapted to a larger item - cot blanket for example. I am delighted with myself to have mastered this complex pattern, although after a few rows it becomes easy to remember. It is another step in the direction of "crochetability" for me!!!

Hata #6
This is a lovely little hat to crochet, I got the pattern on Susies Yarnie Stuff website. I enjoyed picking the colours out of my stash, which is not a problem, as there is so much to choose from! I will do a couple more of these, they are quick and interesting, and I get an odd glance at the TV in between rounds, so I am getting the hang of this crochet business at last!!!
