A little bit of knitting going on

Here are a couple of things I finished recently. First up is a toddler hat made in Vanna's Choice yarn in Olive and White. The pattern is the Pilot Hat by Darlene Dale. It's found on the Caron website.



This is actually the second hat I made from this pattern. The first one was the baby size and was made in the exact same yarn. The pattern has you knitting the hat flat with a seam up the back but I did mine in the round.

Next up is a pair of baby booties for charity. The pattern is from Creative Knitting May 2009 and is called the Buttercup Baby Set. I have only made the bootie pattern so far. Some day I'll try the sweater and bonnet.



The yarn is Patons Canadiana in Tealorama. This was a partial skein left from a zip-up-the-back baby sweater I made several years ago. I still have a little bit of the skein left but not enough for another pair of booties.

I have finished some other items but I haven't taken pictures of them yet. Right now I'm working on another pair of the booties. One is knit and needs to be seamed and then I'll do the other one. Pictures to follow at some point.
