fall

When I last updated, I included a green and brown tweed hat as part of my hat-knitting streak.

I’m happy to report I was able to turn around and make another one with the same colors, just in reverse order of the first. They’re soft and lightweight and absolutely perfect for fall.

So now I’ve got two tweed knit hats that would fit anyone from a child through tween/teen and it didn’t scare me off from working with tweed, even with the neps! 😀

I haven’t listed any of the knit hats in my Etsy shop yet; I haven’t decided if I want to do a whole shop restock when I amass a certain number or whether I want to do a trickle of listings.

I did decide to list the knitted cowl I completed a little while back and an amigurumi squid I completed over the weekend. Check ’em out! Everything ships free within the United States.

Hope you all had a lovely weekend. It still feels like summer in my neck of the woods but we’re supposed to have actual fall temps a week from now. I can’t wait!

If you crochet and you’re starting to make all of your fall accessories, don’t miss this free pattern for Crocodile Stitch Fingerless Gloves from Bonita Patterns! Available until September 30, you can get the pattern by putting it into your shopping cart and checking out. No purchase required! But you may not be able to stop yourself from buying some of their dreamy fabulous yarn, which is also on sale, soooo….

If you’re unfamiliar with Bonita Patterns as a crocheter, get ready to be wowed by the designs, especially if you’ve always wanted to branch out into crocodile stitch. A few years ago, I made a friend a crocodile shawl and it was not only super fun to make, but the end result was stunning!
