More Knitting

Here are some more pictures of Grandma's knitting projects.
The first picture is Beth's cable hat and Seans scarf, on the needles. The yarn for Beth's hat is called blue shadow stripe.

This is Sean's finished scarf.

This is Joseph's sweater and hat. It is actually a sweater jacket.

This is Raven's purple pullover sweater and hat.

There is one more picture. This is the yarn that I bought for Beth's cable hat, but it was too 'bumpy' for the cables. I knitted a plain hat out of the yarn. I liked the yarn better in the store than I did on the needles!

Sean's Hats

I am mailing Sean's hats today! I did the one on the left (frosty green, all acrylic, machine wash and dry) first, and thought it might be too big. The one on the right is an acrylic/wool blend (forest green tweed, machine wash -- delicate -- dry flat. It is smaller and softer. The pattern looks really complicated, but is actually easy and fun to do. Does anybody else want one?
