Baby Girl's Hat

My friend Amber is having a baby Monday. I'm so excited for her! She's having a girl, and the name is a secret!

Here's here darling's hat!

Leah's Birthday Girl Hat!

Stacie, Leah's mom & I have been friends since we were pregnant together! Stacie wanted a cute hat for Leah's 3rd birthday (which is coming up all too fast!)

Here's what I came up with! I'm going to get a charm of the #3 and string it onto the bow, and sew the bow shut so that it won't come off!

CJs Hudson Hat!

I sold a custom Hudson Hat slot on my Cong-Fu store. Here are the finished pictures! SO cute!

Gabriel's Birthday Longies

These were bittersweet to knit and finish. These are the longies that my little man will wear at his first birthday party! I can not believe it's already been a year! it's flown by! This yarn was hand dyed by an amazing artist, TJTunraveled

Without further ado




Also the stocking at Cong-Fu went well! I sold 2 custom Hudson hat slots!

Finished Projects!

Kimmy & Bella's Jane Hats!

So, as you may, or may not know, I have two little boys. I have 4 sisters, 2 step brothers (but they're way older than me, so I NEVER, saw them). I didn't know how to do the whole boy, thing, but 3 years later, I'm hanging in there! I absolutely adore all things girlie, and pink, glittery, flowery, fairies...seriously. I'm a GIRLIE GIRL! These hats are just that! My friend Jenn has 2 little girls, Kimmy & Bella, and Kimmy loved the hat Bella got with her longies and wanted them to have matching! Voila!





{love} seriously.

This hat, I wish I had a little girl to put it on! It's going to be stocking at Cong-Fu on Wednesday the 4th. It's a super soft Cashmerino from Annie Amelia, and I duplicate stitched "Love" onto it! Seriously. I think I want one for me!

2 Things!

1. Stocking at Cong-Fu again at 4!

2. Some pretties!~

This is my favorite boyish Hudson Hat EVER!




A new Valetine-y Jane Hat!

Amira's Hat

One of my best friends, Barb, told me of her friend Amira. Amira has 2 little girls, and was diagnosed with cancer. She's endured some chemotherapy, and has since, lost her hair. I don't know Amira, but I wanted to do something. Barb was searching for head wraps for her, when I got an idea. I will knit her a hat! With Barb's help, we found an amazing deal on some silk yarn from Katsara Yarns. The yarn is amazingly gorgeous in person, and the colors are amazingly rich! Barb said Amira loves the sea/ocean, so this yarn is perfect!

Here is her Jane :)

FINISHED PROJECT(S)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First:
Griffin's Lucky Stars!

SO CUTE! I might have to make Gabriel some in the green/brown variety!






Next:

Ailey's Hat!

I was supposed to make this for her first birthday, back on November 23rd. Uhm, oops!

It's cute though. I feel like it needs something else though, so it might not be COMPLETELY finished!

Griffin's Longies!!!

They're obviously a work in progress, but I LOVE how they're turning out!

Kenzie's Hudson Hat!

This is my cell phone picture, and you can't see the gorgeous colors very well!  I really hope she likes it!

Introducing...

...Gingy!



And here is the Jane hat!!

Finished Hudson Hat!

 

 

I finished Scott's hat! I think it turned out reallllly well. It's the first one (Hudson Hat) that I've actually finished completely, tassel and all! Take a gooood look at that tassel! ;)

And I'm now licensed to sell Hudson Hats! Yay me!

Two finished projects!

So I finished Julian's Hudson Hat...but he won't wear it. It's too 'scary' for him! What the heck? So now I'm trying to convince him it's a "Candy Cane" hat, since his Candy Corn Cap is such a popular one with him!



This is the one I knit yesterday, for me!!! I love knitting things for me, because they are perfect! Like I pick the exact colors I want, and it's just great!
(Please excuse my hair, I took these this morning)

Pictures of day one

Newest Project

I've made 4 candy corn caps, and think I've pretty much perfected the pattern. I gave one to my neighbor's daughter, so if she posts pics, I'll see if I can put them on here. Anyway, I'm going to work on something called a 'hudson hat'. I bought the pattern yesterday and so far have finished an ear flap and I-cord. Yay!

Here is what a hudson hat looks like:


I'm going to work on the other ear flap, and I-cord, and then comes the brim. The only problem I forsee, the pattern calls for 16" size 7 circular needles, and I have only got size 7 Double Pointed Needles, so hopefully I'll be able to work it out with just the DPN. We'll see. Perhaps a trip to Michael's is in order. I looked at Joann's yesterday and they didn't have circulars in anything smaller than a size 8. Plus, I have a coupon for Michael's for 40% off any regular priced item. For yarn selection, I much prefer Michael's over Joanns.

So it might seem like I only knit. I have recently started knitting, in July. So right now it's my obsession. I am also going to make some organization boxes, and want to paint my living room. I have endless amounts of projects to complete! This blog should get crazy!

My candy corn hat

I whipped this up yesterday, during the boys' naps. It turned out SO cute! You may have seen this on my family blog, if so, I apologize! I'm just proud of my crafty attempt.
This is G! My little shnookums :)


Yes I do bite his cheeks ALL the time.
