Blaze

                          Blaze
  This is a hat that is very adaptable. I made it for my dad, but it fits pretty much every adult head. It can be lengthened to a more slouchy fit, too.

  Materials, Red Heart Super Savers in Pumpkin. (Two strands are held together.)Scissors, and a set of four #10 1/2 DPNs.

  CO 20 stitches on each needle, work seven rounds in k2xp1 rib, Knit 20 rounds. If you want a slouchy hat, knit 5-10 more.
 Now, to shape the top,
    21: K 6, K2tog around
    22: K 5, K2tog around
    23: K 4, K2tog around
    24: K 3, K2tog around
    25: K 2, K2tog around
    26: K 1, K2tog around  
    30: K2tog around. Break off yarn, pull through loops and fasten tightly. Weave in ends. Enjoy!

One More Round...

                     One More Round...

    This is a pattern for a wrap bracelet. I hope you enjoy it!
   
  Materials: Sock yarn, No.7 hook, scissors, needle, button of choice.

   Pattern:  Ch 6, join to work in the round.
     Round 1:Ch 2, dc in same stitch and in next five stitches. join with a slip stitch inside of the ch 2.
     Round 2: *Ch2, dc in next 6 dcs, join with slip stitch inside ch 2.
      Continue from * until you have 100 rounds. And just for good luck, work that one extra.

      Now, for the button hole, DON'T break off yarn after last round.
       Ch 8, skip 3 stitches and slip stitch it into the fourth. Turn, sc in each chain and fasten. Break off yarn and weave in the end.
      Button: Use whatever type you like, but I recommend the flat ones. Take a foot long piece of yarn and sew on the button to the other end of the rope, It doesn't matter which 'side' it's on because chances are the rope will twist naturally. Weave in those ends and enjoy!

 This is my first venture into Fair Isle/Norwegian knitting. I drew up this pattern and made a chart with Tricksy Knitter's chart maker. Have fun!

 Materials: A set of four #8 Dpns, scissors, worsted wight yarn in two colors. (I used Plymouth Yarn's Galway. The red was color 16, I can't remember the other.)

  Pattern: CO 12 stitches on each needle,(36), Knit 1 round in C1 (brown). Work 8 rounds of corrugated ribbing, the knits being in C1, and the purls in C2.
 
   Now, work one repeat of the chart, one chart fits one needle. After the chart, Knit all stitches on the first needle with C1. The next needle makes the thumb hole.

  For this, knit 3, BO 6, K3. Knit the rest of the round.
Knit until the bind-offs, CO 6 over the hole, K3 and knit the rest of the round.
  Knit one more round even, then work six round in corrugated ribbing.

Alrighty, so very soon, I will be adding patterns and snippets of random information. So please, just wait. Not like there's anyone waiting....
