I've been working on a hat and gloves for DD2 in the past week. Last week I showed you about half of the hat. Today, you get to see the whole thing!
This is the pattern, and the yarn is some Elegant Yarns in Kaleidoscope #67 Ocean Breeze that I bought while shop hopping. It is 100% wool, and must be hand washed. But it is warm. warm, warm and in DD2's favorite colors. So perfect for a hat and gloves for her this winter in the U.P.
When I got done with the hat, I went searching on Ravelry for some cool looking (and easy to make) gloves, since I have never made gloves before. The pattern I choose to go with is Offhand Gloves, which are knitting up really fast. I just started this left glove on Sunday while watching football, and have all but 2 1/2 fingers completed . Hoping to have the left one completed after this evening, and get the right one done by next yarn along.
I am making them in the women's large size, which is a bit big on me, but should be perfect for DD2.
Great pattern for that yarn - what fun gloves! They look super warm too.
