Steeler's hat for the baby- very easy to make. Cut a rectangle that is 7" or so longer and an inch wide than the desired head size (I found a baby head size chart by googling, well "baby head size chart"), make a brim by folding over the bottom edge twice (should take up about 3" of fabric), fold fabric right sides together and sew with a half inch seam, turn rightside out. About 4" down from the top edge, start cutting fringes about 3/4" to 1" wide, all the way around. Take an extra length of fabric, wrap around the bottom of the fringes, and voila! 10 minute baby hat!

Purty new things

Hey errybody that may still read this. Sorry bout an extreme lack of updates. Over winter i managed to knit two really awesome hats, some scarves, and now that brings me to the summer knitting season. I picked up the Spring/Summer Vogue knitting issue, and fell in love with the first pattern in it- for a really gorgeous beaded shell. I'm not sure if i'll do the beading or the ribbon work, but who knows? I just hope to have it done for the beach, and as this is my first really complicated/wearable item i hope it turns out at least 'pretty good'. So, here a pic of the "finished product" as in the magazine: And here's what i have thus far: The yarn the pattern calls for (and for once the one i used) is Plymouth "Fantasy Naturale" which i got 7 skeins for $33, amazing price thanks Kathy at Kathy's Kreations. I'll keep this updated as i move along, and try to get some pictures of those hats up too!
