Episode 7 - CraftingMemories1 Podcast - Hats, Scarf, Mitts


Episode 7 – CraftingMemories1 Podcast – Hats, Scarf, Fingerless Mitts

What I talked about:
Finished Objects:
Hats – two hats from a pattern that I found years ago that was wrong. I worked how the needle size and the stitches and finished the hats. – One hat is a basic beanie that I am going to make a tutorial of, within a week or two.

Scarf – I created this scarf pattern to match the hat I crocheted above.

Fingerless mitts – I created these fingerless mitts and may later offer a pattern for them. The yarn I used was Caron Simply Soft Party in the color "Royal Sparkle".

Works - in – progress:
Hat - A hat pattern I am working on.

Washcloth – working on another spa bath set or a kitchen set (not decided yet)

Niazuma Sweater – Making a swatch for another Niazuma Sweater with the yarn I dyed.
