Promised photos

Here are a couple of pics of the phthalo turquoise corrective hat:














Isn't it cute?! I love it!



















And...


Ta-da! Here is Skinny Minnie! She still needs her full fringe added (that's a project for Saturday morning), but I couldn't wait to show you!















It is a bit skinnier than I thought it would be. The picture in the pattern book seems to look a bit wider, but there are only 17 rows; this Skinny Minnie is also 17 rows.

I think this is going to look F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S on Cousin! It is soft, soft, soft, crocheted with Fable yarns (and one VIP); Cousin's neck will surely feel pampered.


Here is a detail shot:















I think I'll have to make another one for me!

Next project: Mama needs some legwarmers to wear with her pjs/comfy clothes around house! Me calves are chilly!

I've also been day dreaming about making my own pattern for a felted hot water bottle cover. When I have cramps and need to take my hot water bottle out in public I want to look fashionable, not frumpy.

Lovin' the funky hat! I am NOT a hat person, but in recent years my head feels the cold and that one's a hat I believe I would wear. I just might have to commission one to go with my nifty new scarf!... Maybe we'll do a hat-socks swap?
