Is there any bigger pleasure than the moment when someone takes you to yarn shop and tells you to pick up anything you want and promises to knit something from them for you? And pays it all! Well, some time ago I took a girl to the local yarn shop and she chose green shades of yarn to get new woolly hat and scarf. I must tell we spent few intensive moments to pick up right yarns. And later on she needed to think did she pick up the right shades or not. When she saw it all finished she was so happy because of the shades. They fit so well to her green eyes! She doesn't know yet she's going to get woollen mittens too with her Advent calendar... It is always so nice to make someone happy.
These woolly hat and scarf are very easy to stitch. These ones are
my own design
but you don't even need an instruction for it. Just keep on knitting.
:) The woolly hat has tiny ears which appear more and bigger during the
time. The hat is rectangular shape and at the end you just seam the left
and right sides. The width of this rectangular is half of the head
size. If you want make sure the hat won't get too big after using it for
a while, make the width to be few centimeters too small. Woolly hat is
flexible so it won't be too tiny easily.
The scarf is a very long rectangular -as long as you wish. Both hat and
scarf can be knitted with basic right loops or using right and reverse
(right on right side and reverse on left side). If your climate is not
so cold you can use only furry yarn. I wanted these items to be more
warm so I included woollen yarn with the furry one. I also knit woollen
lining inside the hat. I used smc Brazilia from Coats for the furry look. It is 100% polyester with spruce green shade. The woollen yarn is from Garn Studio's Drops Fabel Superwash collection. It includes 25% polyamid and 75% wool. The shade is forrest green with different variagated shades.
