Friday!
Busy week but its Friday and I am so looking forward to the weekend. Not that we have anything special planned but just because it IS the weekend.
I have been busy doing different projects and because I seem to have several different things on the go I am itchin' to do some knittin'. Dawn is in the midst of knitting a hat and she does wonderful knitting and I told her I would send her this pattern I have. Its simple and its quick and it looks nice too!
I am repeating the pattern and the pics of the hats I made a couple of years ago. You might want to give them a try too. If you do please do let me know and if you have pics I would like to show them. There is also a pattern for a scarf which I haven't made but it could be matching and fun!
The "fur" headbands are great and they really keep you warm. I love mine. I sell them and plan to put some in my Etsy store.
