Crochet: Headband
When little ones are on the way, it’s time to take out yarn and needles and make a few wee gifties.

These can be crocheted up easily in an evening and offer infinite embell...

Knitting: Hats - Other
First developed as a chemo cap and designed to show off a highly variegated, wildly colored yarn, or one that is subtly spectacular; this simple, soft hat is available in two sizes to fit an average adult head.

Knitting: Earflap Hat
This is my first originally designed knitted anything. I wanted to make a guy’s hat that would actually fit a guy’s head!

A simple, subtle pattern stitch in the body of the...
