Made this in about an hour! 65 rows of each color on the Addi Express kingsize.
New Circular Knitting Machine
I joined the Addi express and circular knitting machines Facebook group and recently someone posted that you could buy the king-size version for almost 70% off on Amazon. So I decided to buy one! It arrived and so far I have made a hat and an ear warmer and it seems to work great. I... Continue Reading →
Pebbled crochet beanie
For these beanies I used Michael’s Impeccable acrylic yarns. I usually never use acrylic but these may be getting some heavy use and need to be tossed in the wash 🙂 this is a free pattern that uses half double crochet and mini bean stitching. It’s available at christacodesign.com.
Knit-Look Super Bulky Slouch
I just finished this knit-look super bulky slouch but I think it looks more just like a hat. The pattern by Jennifer Renaud was really interesting because of the way the rows increased and decreased.

Feza hat
I made this hat on my circular knitting machine with Feza Monarch yarn. I made it 22 inches then tucked it in on itself so that it's double thick. Then I added a pompon and it only took a few hours!!!
HDC knit stitch hat
Finished this hat and it's super thick because of the HDC knit stitch in the round. I ran out of green so added blue and went to 11 inches. Fits just fine!

Hats for comparison…
So I decided to make a hat for a 10 year old using this adult small pattern but then decided it was too big so instead of using the 6-10 year old pattern which is one size smaller, I simply used a 5.0 mm hook instead of 5.5 mm hook and the same adult small... Continue Reading →
Hat for me!
Finally took a break from making gift hats and made one for myself using Mochi Plus yarn and this pattern for size adult-medium. I also used my new larger size Clover pompon maker! It really makes the best ones 🙂
