summertime knitting...

June 16, 2010/ Rae Kaiser

I have a big, heavy wool and mohair poncho I should be working on but in Summer I just can't knit with heavy, wool yarn. I can knit socks year round but I thought I'd work with some cotton yarn. So I am making baby hats out of Cascade Fixation which is 98% cotton and 2% elastic. I like the bit of stretch so the hat stays on the baby. (Yes Laurie this is the yarn you hated and gave me!)

And I got this great book full of really fun, contemporary baby hats. I am knitting the Bunny Tail hat. It is a darling little white hat with bunny ears. I'll put either blue or pink ribbons on the ears and include the other set of ribbons in case I guess wrong or the Mom and Dad don't know.

These cute hats (not in the book) are some that I have been knitting. They will go in my gift drawer because someone is always having a baby. But wouldn't this set be darling for triplets?

New fabric on Spoonflower!

I have 61 fabrics and 40 wallpaper designs on Spoonflower.com. They are a print-on-demand site. That means you can buy a yard or 10 in whatever fabric you want. Cool, huh?

If you are not a sewist you can also order many different things using this fabric. I like to switch things up seasonally and this is an easy way to do it.
