Hi Everyone,
I have two finished objects that I forgot to post about: Melissa's Hat and River Run Mitts. I actually cast off both of these projects on March 27, so they've been done for some time. Here is the eye candy!
I am super happy with how this hat turned out. I used the pattern Button Tab Hat by Marcie Nishioka. The only thing that I dislike about how the hat turned out is how small it is in terms of how tall it is, I feel like it is a bit too tiny, but oh well! Other then that I am very pleased.
My absolute favorite part about this blue hat is the buttons. Aren't they beautiful? I like the dark brown edges and the pale blue middle. It's nice how they make the hat have an organic feel. I can't wait to send this to Melissa!
The next FO for today is a pair of "River Run Mitts", a design of my own. They were a really quick and easy design project. I got my inspiration from ski run I went down called River Run. It was a gentle, winding run which the cable on these mitts resembles.
They fit really well with simple increases for the thumb/palm, and I will hopefully be typing up the pattern and publishing it. :)
Also- tomorrow the winner of the March Giveaway will be announced! Make sure to enter if you haven't already!
