GRAY DAY


This hat is super thick and will be a very warm hat to wear this winter.  It is knit from a charcoal gray yarn that is very soft and thick enough to use one layer of yarn at a time.  Someone's ears are going to be toasty when cold weather approaches.

ROSY


I had enough of this pretty rose colored yarn to make a hat and scarf set.  I mixed the rosy colored yarn with cranberry colored yarn to get a tweedy knit for the hat.  I made the scarf out of solid rose colored yarn.  Both yarns are very soft to touch.  How lovely!

FIRE IT UP


Feel the warmth coming from this fiery red knit hat!!  Four layers of yarn give this hat the thickness it needs to keep the ears warm on a cold day.  Add in a big dose of bright color to keep the wearer in a happy mood on that very same cold day and you have a real winner!  Nice combo!

VERY BROWN


Wow, this hat looks very dark.  I mixed solid brown yarn with darker variegated yarn and this is how it turned out.  Very dark.  It is also very warm.  Great hat for cool weather.

PERFECTLY PINKY-ISH


This hat turned out to be a very soft knit hat.  I combined a lovely light pink yarn with a fluffy multicolored cranberry/grey/rose yarn in order to achieve this combination.  It's very pretty.

TWEED RAINBOW


O.K., here we go.  I used variegated multicolored yarn mixed with an off white yarn in order to come up with this tweedy looking hat.  It has four layers of warmth knitted into it and it is so soft.  What an explosion of  rainbow colors just waiting to be worn on a crisp Autumn day (or night).

pwup-pwup


My youngest son used to call the color purple pwup-pwup when he was a very little boy.  Awwwww.  This purple hat is knit from very thick yarn so only two layers of knit makes this hat a very heavy (and, hopefully, warm) hat.  Someones little noggin is going to be warm and cozy this winter.

BABY BLUES


Knitting warm hats during the hot summer seems somewhat odd, but that is how I catch up on my stockpile of hats that I give away each Fall/Winter.  This hat is knit from a very light pastel blue yarn mixed with an off white yarn.  The two tones give it dimension and, quite frankly, just look pretty together.  (breaks up the monotony, really)
