    I have started knitting and am using boa eyelash and regular eyelash yarn for the tops of these hats. The other day I took my morning walk and a neighbor came out, loved the hat and ordered one. Later, I went to the bank, and the teller loved the hat and ordered one. They take about 3 hours to make and I'm having a blast. Maybe that's why my mother's 4 panel quilt turned into a 1 panel wall hanging???

    Was wearing the blue one while walking

    I love those!
    Are the ribbings w/2 strands of yarn too?
    I knit also and might have to borrow your idea :D . I've been needing a new winter hat.

    Those are really cute. I took up knitting two years ago and had to give it up, because my eyes always got blurry. But it was so comforting to sit and knit, I miss it.

    Back to quilting now.

    Very pretty hats I tried knitting but couldn't quite get it so I crochet instead.
