Circle Of Friends

Saw this on ravelry and just had to try it.  This is the first time knitting something using a chart.  It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be.  It was amazingly fast and easy.   You can find the pattern here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/circle-of-friends

Steelers Hats

My son just loves the Pittsburg Steelers. I saw this pattern and couldn't resist making him a hat to match his new sweater. The first one I went strickly by the pattern in size large, the second one I made the small size, I changed the colors around and decreased on every row instead of every other to make it more like a beanie.

Cup Cake Hat for Ms.Dawn

I made this for my GrandDaughter's pre-school teacher...when she found out that I knit, she told my daughter that she had requested one of these from her boyfriend that knits, but he refused to knit it for her so my daughter ask me to make it for her and I of course said YES...
I finished knitting the cherry to go on top, and MacKenzie just had to help stuff it, lol...Then she insisted that Nana add sprinkles to the top of it...
I'm really pleased with the way that it turned out...
I have also knitted 2 more of them for Christmas presents...
