Animal Cracker Hat for Ya Done

                                                  Animal Cracker Hat
                                                        Ya's Quilt

   The Hat is from One of the Harry Potter movies.  It was worn by Ron Weasely. The pattern I used was from HAT . The pattern was sound.  I messed up and had to adapt it.  You see I was watching a movie , and I did not realize it was to big for my 12 year old.  I would have ripped it out, but the color work was  done.  I think I may have saved it.  I will just make another one if this one does not fit.   The yarn was Red Heart  Designer Sport.  Leave a comment if you need the color #.  I have enough yarn to make another one.  I am anixous to see how it looks.  My GD has been wanting one for a long time.  I may try the knit version  at some point when she is older.

  The quilt is in my lap this week.  Ya ask me how much I had done on it. OOPS.  So maybe I can get another UFO done .  I hate to quilt.  Its does hurt, but mostly it hurts my feelings.  I went from 19 stitches per inch to ....don't even want to tell.  I had people in line for me to quilt their quilts.  Now I have very few left I have quilted for my own family.  Little did I know age would rob me of my small stitches.   I thought I would be quilting till I gave up the ghost.  Oh well, its not like I don't have anything to do.

  Its to snow this week.  We have wood and lots of food. So my dears think of me all snug in my home quilting with a cat in my lap and Copper Lou under the frames.  May you be all snug as well.

Sounds good Mimi-

a cat on your lap and only in my case would be one or two more underneath. I love the hat. May have to look up that pattern.
