Beanie time - Lotus Hat

After knitting beanies upon beanies for my friends, I finally decided it was time to knit something for myself. Needless to say, it had to be epic. I wouldn't settle for anything less. And thus it took me nearly six months of mastering the art of knitting, before I deemed myself qualified enough to attempt my beanie.

Once word got around that I had become somewhat of a knitting wizz, everyone wanted one of my famous beanies. But I'm picky with who I spent my precious time on, so the next recipient of my knitting skills wasn't to be just any odd person. And the next beanie wasn't to be just any odd beanie. The honour of having the Slouched Tuva Hat made for her went to my dear friend Swarles Barky.

Quick knits - Lazy Lace Beanie

A quick and easy knit, that's bound to make a friend feel special. The Lazy Lace Beanie is my first attempt at creating a beanie pattern.

Beanie time - Hurricane Hat

After the success of my first beanie, I was on a mission. I set out to make beanies for my closest friends. And the best thing about it: They would have to love them, and wear them, and keep them forever, because they were my friends. Muhahahaha! It's a fool proof plan for world domination.

Alongside the arm warmers I had already made for my sister, I had also promised my husband that he, too, would get something awesome from me.
