It's getting cold out, so I've been making toques like crazy. One is for my secret Santa, one is for Efix, but I'm not telling which! I've been making these like crazy and going to make more. I learned how to add a brim. Enjoy and click for a Flickr view.
I made this hat with inspiration from a hat I saw last year at a rave. I'm excited for winter so I can wear it! I've uploaded a lot of pics so you can sell the full thing. It only took a couple of hours and I did it on a green Knifty Knitters Loom. I love it!
I like to loom knit and found a bunch of wool and a book on loom knitting, so I put together the following. One is a blue (it sparkles a bit, but doesn't show in the picture) cowl/neck warmer, one is a purple and green cowl/neck warmer and the other are a pair of rainbow legwarmers! They took forever (the legwarmers) but I really like them. The purple cowl is my first cowl! (and can also be worn as a hat!)
I bought a set of knitting looms at Michael's and actually wasn't bad at it. My first project was a toque, but its a bit small. My second project was a scarf with this really nice wool I found in my basement. I'm happy with my first projects, and I like to loom. It's relaxing. Pics below, and click for Flickr view, enjoy! Oh, the scarf is 5ft long and it only took a day! I can't knit normally at all, but I can loom!
