As a change from knitting large things - I decided to knit a few hats for the homeless. I don't really need an excuse to buy yarn and recently when I was in Hobbycraft I bought 2 balls of James C Brett's Marble Chunky yarn. They are 100% acrylic - so hardwearing - and come in 200g balls. I was surprised that I managed to knit 4 hats out of each ball.
A couple of these are the same pattern in different colours. However it is good to try a different pattern to keep the interest going.
I then also knitted 2 hats using thinner yarn. I had 4 odd 50g balls of aran weight yarn. I used these to knit these hats.
I have got these hats finished and ready to post off - I am now in the position of having nothing to knit! I don't expect it will take long before I find something else. I am supposed to be making Christmas presents but now it is getting chilly in the mornings - I might knit myself another scarf.
