Pixie in Training Aviator Cap

I love a quick knit.

Quick and cute is even better! I knit two of these little caps in 2 nights - in pink and green. The green is my favorite.

I've been listening to The Aviators Wife by Melanie Benjamin. Maybe that's why I decided to knit an aviators cap.

Baby Bootie Snuggs, Owl and Pussycat

I never thought I'd be an Ugg person. When Uggs became all the craze, I just didn't understand it...until I got a pair myself. Have you tried Uggs. Oh my goodness! They are the most comfortable boots ever! So soft and warm in the inside. If I could wear them with everything I would. With Spring here, I've had to retire them to the back of the closet, but you can best believe as soon as Fall rolls around, they will be back on my feet!

I saw these cute baby bootie Snuggs on Ravelry and saved them to my que to knit at one point. I figured they would be cute on one of my dolls. My sister saw them and had to have them for her best friend who just had twins. A boy and girl. They turned out so cute! Now I definitely need to make them for a doll! I see a Fall doll in my future. Ugg boots and all! The hats were also for the twins. An Owl and Pusscat. I don't do a lot of baby knitting, but this was fun.

FO and Creative Friday - Monsters and Hats

Happy Friday!

It's been a while since I've participated in FO and Creative Friday, but I've knitted lots! I've been on a hat knitting frenzy. Holiday hats, preemie hats, just regular ole' hats. Hats, Hats, Hats!

Along with all the hats, I'm working on a few monsters and babydoll for Christmas. Once all my Christmas knitting is done, I have a few doll patterns I'm going to try out and can't wait! And a few more hats of course - can never have too many hats!

Wow - bad blogger

Wow - it's been almost 2 months since my last post! My blogging has seen better days! I've been itching to get back to blogging, and didn't know where to start! So just going to jump right in and start with my knitting! I have definitely been living a Knitting Life - one of my favorite tags on Instagram. Knitting is never far from me.

I've recently been on a hat knitting frenzy! Our city's Holiday parade was coming up and I wanted to knit holiday themed hats for the parade for me and the boys to wear. Ezekiel, my 13yr old refused to wear a holiday hat, so I knitted the orange and grey below for him. I wore the Rudolph hat, Elijah, my 10yr old wore the elf hat and my sister wore the snowman one. Another post coming on the actual parade.

The other 2 hats were given as gifts. I have several other hats I want to make, but taking a short break from hats to work on Christmas gifts, but I may sneak a hat in between the Christmas knitting. I love a quick project - so satisfying!
