A Homemade Christmas
I had great intentions of participating a bit more in my friend Emily's "A Homemade Christmas," but Edmund has kept me quite busy since his arrival! I did get one homemade gift made before he was born, which was a knitted hat for my brother, Nathan. I had some leftover yarn from a scarf I made him several years ago, so I decided to try to make a matching hat. I didn't have a pattern, but made it up as I went along. My friend Keturah helped me figure out how to decrease the stitches.
Douglas would like me to make him a hat, too, so that's next on my knitted projects list. I'm envisioning a tweed yarn...

Leftover yarn is the best, and the hat looks very well made. I made my first hat a few months ago and I am addicted to knitting in the round.
And, congratulations on your newest addition to your family :)
Goodness, you're talented! By the way, I've read your blog faithfully since discovering it forever ago because of Sense and Sensibility; I just rarely comment. :)
