My first attempt at a hat turned out to be a huge success. I found a cute pattern on Ravelry.com called "Hannah." After a few modifications I had a cute green ponytail beanie! I knew it was risky to modify when you had never done a beanie before, but I did it anyway and learned a lot. Also this was the first project I did in which I used a counter. It is an excellent tool, and I recommend that if you aren't using one to do so. You'll be relieved when you don't have to count in your head for the whole project. I own 4 of them and I'm rarely found without one while I'm knitting.
This is a place for me to showcase my projects and to show what I've learned about the art of knitting.
Welcome to all!
