Pattern test – Iris hat – Update

3rd February 20184th August 2018 Louise

UPDATE

I’ve just realised that I hadn’t updated that the Iris Hat is now finished. To be honest, it’s been finished for months!

The pictures don’t show the correct colour, it is much more purple than this.

I have had lots of comments about the colour as it is so lovely. My only criticism is that it isn’t the warmest when it is windy. Other than that, it’s a great hat and I will definitely make another.

It looks like I am back on to hats but this time for a pattern test for Forgetmeknotpa who can be found on Instagram.

I have only just started the test any have only completed the first 4 rounds but it is looking pretty so far.

The yarn is Sirdair Giselle which is a an aran yarn in shade 0131.

More details to follow.

Happy New Year and a finished project (Westie Cushion)

4th January 201822nd June 2022 Louise

Happy New Year everyone.

I have started the New Year with a completed project. I have been working on this Westie Cushion from Little Doolally.

The pattern was very well written and easy to follow. I will certainly be returning to buy more. The pattern can be found on Ravelry. If Westies are not your thing there are plenty of other patterns to tempt you for cushions and blankets for all tastes.

Unfortunately I now have to give this cute cushion away as he is a belated Christmas present but I will definitely be making another.

A New Cat Hat

31st December 20174th August 2018 Louise

I can’t believe that Christmas eve is already a week ago. Where has the last week gone?

I can now reveal another Christmas make as the new owner now has received their gift.

This hat is another from the Amigurumi Animal Hats by Linda Wright.

The recipient is a Birman cat owner and so the hat needed to reflect this with dark brown (Stylecraft Special Aran in dark brown) and cream yarn (King Cole Big Value Aran in berber) along with blue eyes.

Cat Hat

7th November 201722nd May 2021 Louise

Another completed project…….

This cat hat was made for a friend after making character hats for her daughters; one requested a flamingo and the other asked for a chihuahua.

2 strands of Stylecraft aran was used. The colours are silver, graphite and fondant. The eyes are safety eyes from Woolwarehouse. The pattern is from Animal Hats by Linda Wright.

The new owner was very pleased as the hat is lovely and warm.

So cute!
