I have completed 2 more hats for the homeless youth in Sydney the pattern is a free pattern from Elann.com called Modern Vintage Hat. It only takes a couple of nights to knit. The first hat I knit was in Cleckheaton Country Prints 8ply and the second hat was knit in the Flinders Island yarn I dyed at camp last year, I started it yesterday afternoon at Knitters Guild Kiama. I had only knit items for my grand-daugher with this yarn, but as I had plenty over I thought it would make a nice hat and it did. I have the first hat blocking over my Sunbeam mixmaster bowl and the second hat just waiting patiently for its turn to be blocked, I should be able to send them off next week.
I have checked out my list of what to knit for 2010 and need to get back on track as I have been adding to the list, which has me a bit behind now. This morning I got out the yarn and pattern to start a ladies poncho which is the next item on my knitting list.

Oooooooo...I love those socks. They look great.
Cute hats too and for such a good cause.
Love those green socks.
I haven't seen the hat pattern, it will be nice for some charity knitting I want to do.
I adore those green socks, perfect color with a perfect pattern. I am yet to try and teach myself to knit on circs, I never seem to have much luck with them for some reason. Your hats look great too.
