Notes

03-08-2020 Finally found the time to finish!

Extra Large Pom Pom means fiddling a lot when sewing it to the top of hat so it does not flop around laughing

03-05-2020 Hope to finish tonight. Received my 10.5 dpns a day early.

If you knit 2” instead of 4” ribbing with Alpine, you may have enough yarn to knit 2 hatswink

Knitting intarsia with bulky weight vs. fair isle with fingering weight means knitting loosely yarn

03-04-2020 YEAH - received my yarn this afternoon!! Long tail cast on successfully completed this evening along with 4” of hat ribbing and easily knit up to round 4 of chart … must remember to carry yarn and knit looser hugging_face

02-27-2020 Still waiting for my Polar and Alpine yarn sob Ordered US 10.5 dpns from Knit Picks since I also need size 0 and 1 to knit some little sheep soon sheep

02-24-2020 Received my XL Pom Pom today from Etsy: NaptimeKnitterDesign. Thank you Hannah heavy_heart_exclamation_mark_ornament

02-22-2020 That was super fast !! Received my Crag colored yarn from Hampton Knitting Yarn today - Thank You Kathleen star-struck Like I remember from knitting with it in 2010, Rowan Cocoon is super soft and squishy smiling_face_with_3_hearts

02-20-2020 My Etsy XL Pom Pom has shipped. My Crag has shipped and also received tracking information from Laughing Hens that my Polar and Alpine have shipped from Germany ?! This gives me time to finish my little needlepoint eyeglass case project eyeglasses

02-19-2020 Should be a quick and fun knit yarn
Stephanie is so creative and did it AGAIN heavy_heart_exclamation_mark_ornament Received an e-mail last night with this just released design and cannot resist heart_eyes
heart Rowan Cocoon yarn - found and ordered all 3 colors ON SALE online - the Crag color was a challenge to find. Downloaded the pattern and though Stephanie provides explicit instructions to make the faux fur Pom Pom, I ordered a HUGE Pom Pom on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/670169801/faux-fur-pom-pom-h...
