I love knitting hats and Charlie looks really cute wearing them, so he’s building quite a collection. When I needed a stranded knitting refresher, I pulled out the pattern I used when I was first learning and adapted it to the basic hat pattern I always use. The stitch count worked out perfectly and both Erica and Charlie liked his hat:

I hate to jinx myself by even mentioning it, but I’ve had a lot of self discipline in sticking to a reasonable number of WIPs (works in progress). And so far this year (ha!) I’ve managed to knit every single day — even if it’s just a few rows. I’ve lost count of the times I’ve stopped myself from buying more yarn by reminding myself that I can consider it only when something moves from “in progress” to “completed.” Yet I still continue to tempt myself by browsing Ravelry and adding items to my queue and my favorites. One thing is certain — between Ravelry and Pinterest, I have insurance against sudden loss of inspiration. Speaking of Pinterest, if you would like an invitation, please let me know and I’ll send you one!
That hat is just adorable! So cute!
And I would love a Pinterest invite if you don’t mind. It seems like a lovely site to use (I keep coming across it via StumbleUpon).
What a beautiful hat and beautiful boy! I wish I could pinch those cheeks!
That is a very cute hat on an extremely cute little boy!
Oh my goodness! Both Erica and Charlie are beautiful. Love, love, love the hat and that picture! Also, I would love an invite. Not sure I will know what to do when I get one, but I bet you’ll be able to show me. Thanks.
This is the cutest hat and baby! Lovely!
I could just cry! This makes me miss you guys so so much – and my little heart aches when I see this little guy.
And the hat is ADORABLE. Nice work, Janet.
Love and miss you all…
Charlie is so cute! Love the red hat too.
oh gosh, cute hat on the cutest little head. Congrats on both!
I love those cheeks! (Though I suspect they look way cuter on Charlie than they would on me, LOL!)
That hat is so adorable!
Could I get an Pintrest invite. it sounds like a lot of fun.
