Some stuff I’ve knit in the past couple days
I’ve been knitting like mad lately. Mostly hats. Next attempt is converting needle patterns to loom patterns. I made a hat, sideways, with a cable brim. It’s a big too long and skinny, but it looks good. It took me a day to knit and I used a lot of cables. Another hat, based on

Cowl, infinity scarf in project, fun new stitches for knitting looms thanks to The Invisible Loom’s Stitch Dictionary (for loom knitters) Bob
This year, cowls and infinity scarves are really trendy. I’ve never really knit them much before. I’ve frogged a few scarves because I just got bored of the repeats.
