hats, hats, and more hats....

i was going through all of my winter accessories and realized that i have made a lot of hats over the past ten years. below i have put pictures of most of them there are three hats that i can think of that are MIA. Some of these are crocheted but most are knitted. Oh, and this isn't counting hats that i have made for other people there are at least three of them maybe more i cant remember.









With this many hats i shouldn't need anymore... right? well i seem to have an addiction to hats because i have plans and yarn to make two more! See the problem with most hats is they don't keep my ears warm when it is really really cold out. The wind seems to blow right under them. Well, an ear flap hat will prevent this problem. Now, i have two ear flap hats already but neither of them goes with my coat and I WANT A NEW ONE! I found some really cute helmet hats that cover your ears so i haven't decided if that is what i will make or stick to the ear flap one. The other one i want to make will probably be more of a cute hat and not so much a super warm one ( i am not sure i will see ) i have really nice soft yarn and two buttons that match perfectly i just can't decide what hat to make with it. who knows maybe i will break a record for making the most hats.

x-mas 2010

It is the end of x-mas day and i do have to say that all went well ( there was a little grumpiness is the house but not to bad ). My mom liked the x-mas stocking i made her ( i have to get a picture of it before it gets packed away)i did not finish hers socks in time so i wrapped them still on the needles, i only have a few more inches left to finish. However my mom didn't seem too impressed with the socks, she looked at them laughed and stuffed them back in the bag :( she hasn't been feeling to good so i won't take the reaction too seriously.

I got pj pants, socks ( ankle socks .... in the winter? ), miss matched socks, map for my car, turtle pin, white cocoa, calender, fancy cookies...






Dinner was really really yummy.... we had roast pork tenderloin marinated in a ginger sauce, roasted potatoes, and broccoli MMMM apple pie with ginger snap ice cream for dessert.
