beanies and decreases.

 London Beanie is by far the easiest pattern for making hats. 
It's Ann Norling: Head Huggers. 
Patten #55. 
   I follow the decreases precisely and do not adjust for left handed. So far it's turned out fine, however, the decreases will slant the opposite way. 
Add stripes and colors for your favorite team.

New Cloche

 A girl's cloche using some light purple chunky acrylic yarn. Sz 5 weight. I used a size 9 circular needle. This yarn was from a closeout sale and was on the cheap side. I'm sure it would look even better with a quality yarn
I used a really easy free pattern from:  www.fiberflux.blogspot.com
I attached a bow to the side:
Cut  6" ribbon and gathering loops up in opposite directions similar to making a package bow.

learning how to knit.  You have come to the RIGHT place.
 You can do it! 
I hope that all the videos, tutorials, editorials and my own advice will help you to

Good luck! and Happy Knitting!
