double decker


Here's a two tone green hat knit with stripes in the band and tweed on top.  Another thick one which will meet the warmth requirement.  Sporty, too.

red speckles


I like the looks of this little red and white knit hat.  The mixture creates a tweedy look and the extra thick band will keep those little ears warm.  It's very soft, too.

tweedy greenie beanie


I have a lot of green yarn and I have been thinking up different ways to use it.  This hat has a thin white yarn woven into the head band and it gives the hat a tweedy look.  Extra thickness at the ears will keep a child's head warm.  It's comfy, too.

donuts


No, I don't think the hat could be mistaken for a donut but I wanted to take a picture of this hat with the donut bag that was carefully saved from last summer's visit to the state fair.  Both are yummy!!

SLEEPYTIME



I think it's the setting that makes me think of sleepy time.  The plush comforter in the picture is velvet-y on one side and fluffy on the other.  The color combination of the yarns in the hat are some of my favorites--dark red and forest green.  Time for a nap.

SCRAPPY TWO



This hat was made in the exact same way as Scrappy (yesterday's hat) but using a pretty green for the base color instead of burgundy.  Odds and ends and little bits of yarn were knit together to create the random, yet colorful, band around the ear area.  Time to play outside!!

SCRAPPY



I knit this hat from scraps of yarns.  Actually, they were more like bits and pieces.  Some were very short and hardly worth saving but I did and the hat turned out just fine.  It's also a very warm hat with lots of protection for the ears.  It looks like it survived the battle of the yarn bits quite nicely.
