Do you bring your knitting on date nights?!

Date night knitting and seafood linguini at @gemscafeandbistro 😍

Why knit 2 at a time socks when I can knit 2 PAIRS at a time 😉 Finally knitting up my stripping yarn from @tinyhumanknits that I have been hoarding. ❤️ It will probably be a year or more before I finish them but that’s ok. It’s my traveling project, small and easy!

We are so lucky to have this restaurant in town now! Before we were traveling 40-60kms for date nights, but now we can just walk over 😍 The food is AMAZING!!! And don’t have to worry about leaving the kids at home 😉 If you are in the surrounding area (Barrhead, Westlock, Whitecourt, Neerlandia) it’s definitely worth the drive!

Can you see the difference??

I don’t always block my hats but for hats with texture like this, it’s a must 😍 What is blocking you ask? Basically you get your knits wet, and fry them in the right position😉

This is my Wanderer hat pattern knit in @polkadotcreek pima cotton yarn.

I HAVE been knitting I swear lol just not as much knitting time lately with an almost 6m old. And since knitting is a slow craft I don’t have a tone to post 😉 but here is a hat I have been working on for my little brothers new fiancé 💕 (congrats @sred1989 😍)
It’s my Wanderer hat pattern and the ribbing takes forever haha but it’s worth it for that double brim 😍

I’m very much enjoying using this pima cotton from @polkadotcreek yarns.

Yarn haul from @rosehillyarns 😍😍
If you missed it in my stories I won this yarn as a gift from a Canadian FB yarn group I’m in.
I have plans for the first two sets of colors I held up and the rest of the yarn I am sharing with some of my knitting friends 💕

I’m super excited! I’m planning another Halu with the gold color and a Sipila with the pink/charcoal. Both @boylandknitworks designs.

These are the Aeshna Mitts by @eheusserdesigns knit up with cream Patons Kroy and @bossladyyarnco for the purple.

Ok. So I knit this hat over 2 years ago with yarn from a dyer who has blocked me for being me haha 😆 so I haven’t shared this project yet. I knit it for my husband but he didn’t wear it often as it felt itchy on his forehead, so this year for Christmas I lined it with fleece for him 💕

The pattern is The Oslo Hat by @petiteknit

Solid or self stripping?? What’s your jam??

I’m working on some sock samples for an upcoming class in January and I definitely like stripy socks best. They are just fun!

The solid color socks are knit using the Slow Morning DK sock pattern by @woollen.sun

Finally!!!! I’ve been saying for over a year! The Lost in NY 2.0 knitting chart is up for FREE on my website!

It is more true to the original hat from Home Alone 2 but it does have many rounds of 3 color colorwork, which is what I was avoiding in the original pattern 😉

Find it at www.cozyhappyheads.com

It felt like a blink and realized I haven’t posted in almost a month haha September was busy! Soaking in as much baby as I can before she grows so big. 😭 It was also my husbands, youngest son and my birthday in September. Baby shower, family pictures and a town dance, I finished a pair of fingerless mitts and started another. Canning, garden harvest, yard clean up, home schooling and now it’s already October! Love my busy life 💕

FREE PATTERN BELOW 👇

First off just let me say that working with this yarn from @symfonieyarns has been so enjoyable. Next DK weight sweater quantity I need I and definitely to get some of their Luna line. The silk content in it makes us feel so luxurious ♥️

Twisted Ear-warmer.

Materials:
-4mm 16 inch circular needles or DPNs
- 1 Skien of Symfonie yarns Luna
(200 yards DK weight yarn)
-Darning needle

Cast on 65 stitches, I used a long tail cast on.

Row 1. Purl all stitches, turn.

Row 2. Knit all stitches then stretch your row around your needles to join and continue working in the round. (If you are using DPNs you can skip the first 2 rows)

Round 3 until end. Knit every stitch all around until you have approximately 5 feet of yarn remaining. (The tube should be approximately 24 inches long.)

Cast off your stitches and sew up as shown in this video.

A few of the ways I was knitting on my project over the weekend… when I had good lighting to take video 😆 The yarn is from @symfonieyarns Luna in the Honey color and it is knitting up so nicely! ♥️ The 25% silk makes the yarn so soft and I can’t wait to finish up this project to show you guys what I’m making myself! Any guesses??
