Fair Isle Hat




We recently received in a new yarn to the shop called Fair Isle. I knew I wanted to take one ball and make a Mommy and Me hat set.

This yarn is awesome because it looks like colorwork, without doing any of the work!!! 

For the mommy hat, I used the YAS hat pattern from Ravelry (which is a free pattern!) but used US8 needles and this Aran weight yarn. I did 96 stitches for a loose fitting comfy slouch hat that didn't mess up my hair like a form fitting hat. 88 stitches would work great for an adult hat too! If you are a looser knitter, a US7 might be best!! 

For the baby hat I used Troll which is a free pattern I found on Ravelry. I didn't make any alterations to this one!! 

I had a decent-sized ball left over when I was done!! This set would be super fun as a baby shower gift!

You can find the yarn in-store or online HERE

Karen Chemo Cap 5th Anniversary Makeover

I had someone ask me about the Karen Chemo Cap Fan Stitch and I decided the video and pattern were both in need of a make-over! Especially when I noticed this year is the 5th anniversary of publishing this pattern. When my mom had chemo I made her a few different hats because honestly it felt like the only thing I could do. I designed this one just for her, and was super excited when it was her favorite! After she passed I wasn't sure I wanted to release the design, but with a little time...it felt like the right thing to do! You can download the pattern for free here (please give it a favorite over on Ravelry so that it gets a little Ravelry love!!!):  Ravelry: Karen Chemo Cap pattern by A Little Knitty Designs You can purchase the yarn we used here:  Cumulus by Juniper Moon Farm (alittleknitty.com) Here is the video if you need help with the fan stitch!
