Made first beanie (item 1, two balls used) from the Hat Family pattern
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-hat-family-r...

The men’s scarf (item 2, eight balls used) measures 25cm x 200cm, and the stitch used was 40 htr per row, for a scarf big enough for an adult male.

Items 1-7 are made from 100% Australian Wool, sourced from the Wangaratta Woollen Mill with each ball being 90m in length.

Made a child’s beanie with pom pom over the weekend (15-16 May 2021) using a YouTube pattern by Lyza Walters, and pom pom maker by Clover, the small size. Fits child aged 3-10 years old. The child’s beanie with pom pom used 2 balls of wool.

Made a child’s scarf (17 May 2021) with fringe and this is Item 4. Used 1.5 balls of each colour, with enough left over for the fringe, likely enough for 2 or 3 pom poms. The scarf measures 125cm x 12.5cm, not counting the length of the fringe.

Made a second child’s beanie (with pom pom) I’ll refer to as Item 5, on 18-19 May 2021. It’s the same size as Item 3, and I used 2 balls of wool in total.

Completed a second child’s scarf (on 20-22 May 2021) with fringe and this is item 6. It’s the same size as Item 4, so used 1.5 balls of each colour, with enough left over for the fringe, and pom poms if needed.

Made item 7 on 23 May 2021, a ladies beanie in purple colour with pom pom. Used just under 3 balls. Started with 54 chains, (or about 50 tr/dc across each row). Was around 27cm in width and 52cm in length, before joining seam and adding pom pom.

Finished item 8 on 9 June 2021, a ladies plain scarf to match the beanie in purple colour. Measures 15cm x 190cm and has no fringe. Used 5 balls of wool in total.
