I tinkered and won!

I've been working on a new pattern for fedora's.  The first one was a failure as it had no body and wouldn't hold it's shape very well.  This one was made with two strands of yarn and looks much better.  Since I had two requests for fedora's it was important to get it right.  Now there is only to embellish them.  I have feathers imported from another state and from England to apply.  Will be making the feathers detachable in case the recipients either don't like them or need to protecct the feathers from the weather.

So, there's a black fedora on the needles now and will be making at least two more.  Baby booties are in process as well.  Then there's the man's pullover sweater.  Considering making that with cables.  Should be fun!

Hope your day goes well.

  1. FYI, that little purple blob by the fedora is the first fedora run through the washer a second time. It's now going to continue life as a teapot cosy, sometime in the near future.
