Shamrock Gold

I saw this metallic yarn and just could not resist.

I thought I would make a shawl but did not like it after I got started.

So I set it aside and made this hat.

I had to adjust the pattern some but like how it came out.

Then I decided a small light scarf would look good with it,

and found this green one in the closet 

so I crocheted this to go with it.

What goes better with shamrocks than gold?

February Walker Decor

For this month's walker decoration,

I sorted through a number of heart patterns 

and selected this one.

Obviously I made three and attached them to the elastic.

They were described as easy and that they were!

I think they have a nice shape as well.

The tutorial can be found here.

I just substituted some red yarn I had and the appropriate hook.

Gingerbread Girl Hats

I finally found a little time to finish these hats.

It always amazes me how much character comes out in each one,

 when you are making several

that should all be alike!

I was a bit concerned the weather would warm up before I finished.

And in fact it did but dropped 20˚ already today

so I think they will still get to use them.
