I have had another bout of sinusitis and have been off my game/head. Bending and turning is painful and my current morning routine includes a little group of tables mostly white (the penicillin however is dark red and orange (see below). I have been making the stars for the window which …… got a bit boring so I decided I needed hats, comfort, protective, not too much thinking and easy to complete!
The first was a bat hat – for my Grandson Jake, who is big into superheros and not into hats…… It isn’t perfect but the next one should be
Then I finished a chunky version with some marled combo yarn (from a trial that didn’t work as a I hoped) but it needed a pompom or something (fashionista I am not)…….. tassels anyone?!!
I have a basic hat in the shop simple as and I have even rewritten its pattern this week too…just waiting for printing this one is in Illustious heather
Having got going I went back to my love of fair-isle for a flourish and to try some special dyed Triskelion scylfing (where does he get those names?) it is lovely and I mixed it with some Wendy Ramsdale (in a colour they don’t do anymore)…. wonder where that colour scheme came from? It needs a little finish to the back pompoms? tassel? or stars???
