I am starting a year long project today. I am going to knit a new hat every day this year and at the end of the year I will give away all 365 hats. I am not a knitter in the traditional way. I never could master the two knitting needle method and therefore all the hats I make are very simple. I use circular looms and a knit hook. The large eye needle is used in the finishing process. There is no purl stitch involved. Therefore the hats are all very uniform and could be rather boring. That is where the creativity comes into play. Mixing colors, adding beads, double knitting yarns vary the look. The best part is the naming rights. Ah, yes! There are only a few times in life when we are given naming rights (kids, pets). So, I will name them as I go. Okay, enough talk. I need to get busy.
