That's all wonderful Snowy - really lovely!
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

Oh juliec - that's gorgeous! Would you mind emailing me the pattern as my great-niece loves hats.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

Hi goose girl.  I have pm'do you. Course I can scan and send you the pattern. The pattern says 250grms but in reality after making 8 I know know that for an average teenage/woman you need 100grms of double knit of with  an aran type wool larger needles and still 100grams. Send memail your details and I can send you the pattern as it was from a free pattern site so no problems with copyright etc. Thanks Juliec. X

just use smaller needles, for adults and aran/chunky  wool I use 5 and 6 needles and reduce the amount of rows and for smaller children 4 and 5 needles.

Happy knitting.
