2014 is going to be a busy year knitting wise I am doing two Challenges.
One is 14 hats for '14 on the Knitting Paradise forum. Knitting Paradise
It is a KAL and we are going to try and complete 14 hats for a charity during 2014.
I cannot seem to master knitting in the round so I will knit my hats on straight needles.
I have found these:
Cecily Beanie I will add my own embellishments
In the Woods this I think is an aran weight yarn I will have to see what I have in aran weight yarn before starting this one.
Bev's Cosy Hat This one I can make for all ages so a good one to have.
Ellen's Knit Hat Nice and easy to do and versatile I can add stripes to this as well
Wel Hats I can chose which one of these to make so again a nice one to have.
I have some other patterns in an old note book that I have but no idea where the patterns are from as I was given the notebook by a friend who can no longer knit, so I will make them but have no idea where the patterns are from.
The other Challenge is this
Knit a Block a Week on the Loving Hands forum Loving Hands and a great way to use up stash. We will be using this book 200 knitted blocks I have ordered it and it has been dispatched. I am hoping the patterns will be written as I am still not great with charts but will master it if the book is all charts so fingers crossed there is a mix of written and charts.
So lots to keep me busy and out of trouble plus I get to make some new things.
Hello, I'm doing the Knit a Block challenge as well. Don't worry, the patterns in the book are written and there are many easy ones.
ReplyDeleteOh thanks I dread charts
