FO : Hat attack hat

A simple yet cute hat designed for my mom as her requests



I used about a skein of Knit Picks Comfy bulky in Ivory.
Needle : 5mm

Easy easy as I used the same pattern all around to keep it simple. Since last year she wears it a lot and the yarn is still beautiful !

If I have a little time ahead I will find my notes and released the pattern I hope before the end of the month.

Another project not knitting but I'm proud of it

I talked in my first post of 2012 that we are renovating the house...one of my accomplishment in 2011 is this :

I remove the ceramic tiles of the entryway and replace it all by myself !



I don't have a FO picture yet because we changed all the molding and we had a lot of friends and family over for Christmas plus all the family of my husband from France so I need to paint a final coat and add some deco and voila I'll be done, but I was too excited to show you !!!

Better than before don't you think ?

FO : Retro Rib Socks

A few days before his birthday (actually his birthday is December 8th), my father told me that he loves his knitted sooooo much that he sleep with it every night. Ok I get the point he want some new socks !

Fortunately I had begun Retro Ribs sock back in July...2010 so I grabbed them with only the foot of one to do and both toes. So it went quickly and my father had the gift he wanted !


Pattern Retro Rib socks by Evelyn A.Clark from the book Favorite socks

 Needles : 2.25mm DPN
Yarn : Knit Picks Stroll solid in Pine color about 1.5 ball I guess


Easy I don't know why I did not finish right away last year...probably I had a startisis crisis !

Now that's clear that my dad will want some more next year for his birthday again, maybe I should think about them and knit them ahead of the time... :)
