Meanwhile

Hi everyone!

A little post with an old project so that this blog doesn't hibernate while I'm waiting for a day when I'll have time to take pictures and the weather will be fine enough to do so of  my ongoing projects.

So here is a hat I made around the time I was knitting my Heathering Height. It's an easy stranded hat using the remains of the Cascade skeins I used for the other hat.

yarn: Cascade 220 Heathers, personal pattern

I wanted to design a pattern for it but I saw that:


1- there was one exactly like that, for free, available on Ravelry
2- there was one better than this one knitted by Alex Tinsley

So, no pattern from me for this hat :)

That's all for today, I have quite a lot of projects to come (some KALs and other things) so I should add some posts in the following days!

Here it is!

My very first pattern!
It's called Heathering Heights and it's for free! It comes in three sizes and you can choose to knit it with one or two colours and to add a pompom to it.


Heathering Heights in size L and M.

I knitted the blue and orange hat first because I wanted to use up the wool I had left from my Audrey Cardigan and I liked it so much that I decided to order more wool and make another one for me (and write down the pattern).
The yarn I used both times is Cascade 220 Heathers and it's quite warm. I'm very happy with it.
I hope you'll like it too. I'm really looking forward to reading your comments. As it is a first time for me I guess there will be imperfections but I'm really eager to learn and hear what you have to say (or should I say "read what you have to write"?).

Apart from that, I am almost done with my Definitely Susan but I am currently working on a new test so it's on hold for the moment and this is not good as it was supposed to be a Christmas present...

It's everything for today and I hope I'll have things to show you all very quickly! Until then, I hope you'll take a look at my Heathering Heights :)
