...of course I had to sign up...
...so I went to Stuff-Mart - where I know they keep the Vanna's Choice acrylic - I was looking for a Granny Smith Apple green - unfortunately that yarn doesn't come in exactly that colour...but Red Heart does...(good ole Red Heart)...and the colour inspiration came from Anna at Finally Waking Up...
...then, of course, I cast on immediately...
...Scout was working at the Fall Senior Supper - so I helped the Boy Scouts in between bouts of knitting...so I took a goofy mirror picture of the ribbing/fit check...
...now, I'm about half-way done - wish me luck - the deadline is Saturday...
Looks great and I love the color!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! You have some beautiful ribbing there-wow! Peace, Angela
ReplyDeleteNeat hat, Teresa! I sure hope I can teach myself to knit this Winter. I like the type of stitching you do for the ribbing and the rest of the hat - neat textures. Yes, good ol' Red Heart -they have wonderful bright varegated yarns that I like to use, too. Good luck on gettin' 'er done! I know you will. Take care, from Casey Co KY.
ReplyDeleteLooking good, I knit one too!
ReplyDeleteHow fun to be a test knitter. I always wanted to do that, like getting in on a secret ahead of time or a sneak preview of a movie. I love the color you chose. Can't wait to see how it turns out!
ReplyDeleteI love the color and ribbing--bet it will be a great hat:-)
ReplyDeleteWhat an honor to be asked:-)
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
ReplyDeleteI really like that color, too. And the pattern is very pretty. MOM
ReplyDeleteBest of luck in meeting your deadline. The finishd hat looks great and so will your finished hat I'm sure. I like the colour.
ReplyDeleteSuch a stylish photoshoot - resulting in a very jolly pic!
ReplyDeleteThe hat will look spiffy, good luck for finishing it on Saturday (as requested) although I don't think much luck will be needed.
Looking forward to seeing the result.
It looks great already! I would sure love to learn to cable!
