Not quite ready in time for Christmas, and not quite ready still, I couldn’t wait any longer, so I gave Aria her knitted cable hat and hand mitts.
These awesome patterns are available for free here and here.
I found this amazing self striping Yarn Bee yarn at Hobby Lobby. The colors are so fun, bright and vibrant. Beautiful sparkly sequins cover it. It reminded me so much of Aria, so I knew I had to make something for her out of it.
It cost $7.99 but I used my 40% off coupon. This project took two skeins.
I loved the hat pattern and you just can’t go wrong with a pattern that is free, however I did change it up a bit and added a 1×1 rib along the bottom edge.
I knew that hand mitts would be a hit for her, she has always loved them. These turned out so cool because each hand mitt looks different because of this awesome yarn.
I could not leave this pattern alone either, I added a couple of 1×1 ribbed rows at the thumb.
This project was a lot of fun for me to knit because of this fun yarn, but it is still not complete. I am still working on the scarf.
He will cover you with his feathers. He will shelter you with his wings. His faithful promises are your armor and protection.
Psalm 91:4
She is clearly enjoying the day and her warm hat and mitts. The sequins are fun!
Yes! She was super excited! This was a fun project for both of us 😉
