Earflap Hat with Mochi Plus

I know Gma Laurie I haven't put anything new up for awhile. Here's Lisa Jorgenson's latest project. She is writing the original pattern for all to buy at The Purl District. It is knit from Crystal Palace Mochi Plus worsted in what I call "Eugene" colorway. It's really called radiant rainbow. Very cool earflap hat.Lisa has fitted it to the face and forehead very well so it envelops your face. It has ridges at the top an I-cord from the crown with optional tassels or Pom Pom. Come in and check it out.

Sheepsies in the field with Maggie!



Maggie is wearing Sylvia's fab Needlefelted,sheeps and field on a machine felted re=cycled sweater from her closet! Isn't she/that a cutie? We have what we call the National Needlefelting Union at The Purl District. We meet on the last Sunday of the month. It's this Sunday from 11am-1pm. There is no cost to play, unless you want to buy kits or tools or fiber or? Maggie made a 2hour hat for her first project in knitting. She is 9yrs old. If you want a 2hour hat pattern they are free with yarn purchase. We'll even get you started! OOps! almost forgot.....We'll be making felted Red Valentines too!

I know I'm terribly random in my writing. It's how I talk too.

Toodles,
