Blue Hurdles

 The Stitch pattern is called 'Hurdles'. 
Made the hat to go with the cardigan.  It knit up quick and turned out better than I expected.  The cardigan pattern is 'Little Coffee bean Cardigan' by Elizabeth Smith and the hat is the 'Aviatrix Baby Hat' by Justine Turner both on Raverly.com.

Moss Baby Cardigan

Moss baby cardigan finished at the beginning of the year.  Glad to have it off the needles.  It turned out adorable.

Dead Fish Hat anyone? 

A request from the dear Hubby.  Unfortunately too small for him.  So the Eldest son claimed the fish.  Thinking I should invent a chin strap and make one smaller for the little fellow.  He looks adorable in it, but keeps falling off.
GOOMBA

Made two of these hats for my Husband's work Christmas party.  They turned out adorable.  Fast, basic hat pattern.  I have orders for two more.  On to goomba some more.
Double Breasted baby Sweater.  

Had this yarn in my stash.  I only had one skein so I knew I it had to become a baby sweater.  I found this pattern and decided that is what the skein is to be.  I had enough over for the hat.  The buttons made the sweater.  I was going unisex but it looks more for a little boy than a girl.  The pattern was supper eay and knit up fast.

Baby Easter Basket Sweater and hat.  Yeah!  I finished it!  I love this sweater pattern, but the yarn was boring to work with.  It was annoying that the colors did not line up.  On one side is stripes and the other solid color.  I am glad it is finished so I can start more projects.

Made this adorable dead fish hat for my eldest son.  He picked out the yarn.  It turned out so exciting with the pooling of the colors in the middle.  Gives it a break from the stripes.  I ran out of the rainbow yarn so had to use red for the dorsal fins.  I think it made it look better.  Off to finish another project.
