Hello! I know that Christmas is over, but I wanted to show you a few of the things that I knit up during the Christmas season.

  1. Jacques Cousteau Hat by Lalla Pohjanpalo

I knit up this hat for a friend of my husband who didn't have a lot of family around. I used Brooklyn Tweed Shelter Yarn in the Homemade Jam colorway and I'm told that it was very well received.

     2. Classic World War II Watch Cap (Archived)by Helen Waittes

My brother-in-law recently moved out on his own and I heard that it was cold where he lived, so I decided to knit him up a cap for Christmas. I used Berroco Alpaca yarn so it's super soft and super warm.

        3. Drangey by Stephen West

My knitting group went on a mini-yarn shop hop earlier in the fall and I couldn't resist picking up enough yarn to knit my husband a new winter sweater. I used Cascade 220 for the gray parts and Brooklyn Tweed Shelter in the Red Long Johns colorway . This was my first Stephen West knit and it was so much fun! This sweater was an exact fit!
