Getting Ready for Next Winter--A New Hat and Scarf Set
I'm already burned out with working on my uncle's doily and I still haven't gotten more black yarn for the magic ball afghan I've been working on. Once again, I started a new project without finishing up what I was working on. I'm making a hat and scarf set for next winter. I'm using some Homespun yarn I bought on clearance at Wal-mart a while ago. I normally don't like working with Homespun because my hook gets caught in the thready fibers but for small projects I can put up with it. I finished the hat last night while watching television with dh and at this time, I have roughly a foot of the scarf made. After I started the hat, I noticed that the crown of the hat wasn't closed but rather had 4 openings. Well, I couldn't have that so I gathered the top of the crown and closed it off. Winter is cold and I didn't want the top of my head to freeze :). Anyway, the pattern I'm using for this set is a freebie from LionBrand Yarn. I'm not going to post a picture of the hat until I finish the scarf and can show the set together so stay tuned...
