the FROSTY



This lightweight knit hat is all white except for the tiny silver metallic threads that are present in the crown of the hat.  It is very soft.  Very pretty and just right for a chilly morning!

the SASSY J



What do you think of this?  Here she is--miss SASSY-- all decked out in her pink and blue hat.  I believe it's a hit!  We love you SASSY!!!

the M and G



The M and G stands for the maroon and gold.  These are the school colors for the University of Minnesota.....my alma mater.  I made this hat to wear while I was watching U of M sports (mostly on TV) just to show school spirit.  That's about it.  I like it.

the TRICIA



This hat is knit from all cotton yarn.  The vibrant pastel colored yarns are double knit and provide plenty of warmth.  It's a happy looking hat!  Speaking of happy...happy, happy, birthday, birthday to Tricia!!

the RAM



I like the color combination of green and gold.  I think this might be some school's colors or something.  Somewhere.  Maybe.  Nice hat!

the DAY



This hat was knit from the same blue speckled yarn that was used in the previous hat (the NIGHT) but white yarn was mixed in with the blue yarn instead of black yarn.   I wanted to see how much of a difference there might be in the general appearance of the hats.  This hat is obviously lighter colored but not as light as I thought it would be.  The black yarn, however, has a greater effect on the overall color  by darkening the hat more than the white yarn lightens it.  It may be because of the greater color contrast between the yarns.  (geek moment)   OK, I'm done!
