I had some of this leftover yarn that I dyed with Kool Aid (I call it Bird of Paradise) and wasn’t sure what to do with it. I ended up striping it with some soft grey to make this hat by Leethal. To add more flair to it I needle felted hearts over the ears. Because of the aviator style of the hat and the red hearts I call this hat my Amelia EarHEART hat.

I test knit a hat for Lee Meredith (Leethal) and made it for my husband. Looks good!

Knit this little sweater for a baby shower this weekend. I also made a hat to match! Baby hats + pom poms = awesome! The variegated yarn I dyed with Kool Aid. I call it Bird of Paradise. Read more info on my Ravelry page.

I had so much fun knitting this- too bad it was for someone else.  Modeled by my husbeast.
