Hats, hats and yes you guessed it more hats!
I have this mad bug for Pixie hats! I brought the pattern from Ravelry and its soooooo easy, sooooo quick, soooooo warm and looks amazing!! Here are a few pics of the ones i have already made:
I have just finished another one but havent posted any pictures yet! I will share when its up. As you can see from the above pics I have been torturing all the people in the office and making them model them for me! Im thinking of doing a market stall to sell them as its close to Christmas and I need the money lol!

The Christmas Countdown!
I cant believe how fast this year has flown and Christmas is just around the corner! It going to be a very tight Christmas this year with small gifts (hopefully knitted) and hand made treats for everyone! I have left it a bit late to do all the knitting I need to do so will be knitting up nice bulky hats, scarves, cowls and snoods with big yarn on big needles to keep people warm, plus its mega quick to knit!
I have found a great little yarn shop in High Wycombe that sells the whole Cygnet yarn range at really cheep prices. I have stocked up on a few balls but will be hitting it big time when I get paid! The Cygnet Seriously Chunky comes in some great colours and feels great when knitted up. Stick it on a size 9 Needle and you can have a Pixi hat in 2 hours!
Ollie's Mum's Birthday is on the 4th December and she wants a Long Knitted cowl in Moss stitch so Im going to be making a start on that tomorrow. I currently have a Pixi hat on the needles and have relegated all the baby knitting to one side until I have the Christmas knitting out of the way!
I am organising a Secret Santa with the knitting group and am really looking forward to dishing out names and then swapping gifts! We are rolling the giving of presents and the Xmas do into one so should make for a great knitting group night on the 6th of December.
Well better run along and get the needles blurring! Happy Knitting Everyone!
