Any charity hat thread

Very nice Rita. Did you crochet around the edge? That is what I want to do but I just cannot get the hang of it.

Good day to you Sue:)
Thank you so much . Yes, I did do a crochet border. i just did to double crochet 6 times and then 1 single crochet 1 time all the way around. Then i embroidered a flower in each corner .
I am glad you like it :slight_smile:

Rita got my hat done:cheering:I love how this yarn makes it’s own pattern:woohoo:. It’s called Bernat Baby Jaquards.Color is called Boys and Girls.
I add a little keep sake to my blanket too.

What a gorgeous hat Julie . :yay: Lovely yarn:)
The blanket is adorable and the little keepsake really adds the finishing touch. It is very sweet Julie:hug:

Great hat Julie. I love that yarn. It is very soft and comes in such pretty colours. I think it would also be great for children’s and baby socks.

Thanks Rita & Sue
Sue good idea!! How about a sweater? I wonder what this yarn does knit in the flat? I’m gonna have to try it out:teehee:

[B]Julie[/B]: I knitted mine in the round but I am going to visit a friend today who has knitted hats from the Bernat patterns on the bands. They are knitted flat, so I will let you know.

Hello my fellow knitters :slight_smile: I hope you are all ok :hug:
I came across a site that want miniture hats to put on smoothie drinks bottles. For every drink sold with a hat on the company and Sainsbury’s who will sell them will donate 50p to Age Concern , which will help provide meals and blankets ect to the elderly in the uk.
I have come across this only today and the deadline is the 17th October . So it will be finished soon. But i thought i could make a few and send them a week before the deadline. It gives me two weeks:)
Here is the link for details and patterns

This seems to run every year ,so i must keep an eye out for it for next year.

Also here is another baby hat :slight_smile:
Julie ! I knitted this in the round on the circs:) Thanks !

Rita, Nice job with the circulars:cheering: Cute hat and what a interesting charity.Would be fun knitting all those tiny hats.And what a good cause!!

[B]Julie[/B]: The Jaquard yarn knits up into a really pretty pattern knitted flat also. My friend has made several. This pattern is adorable, looks much cuter than on the label

[B]Rita[/B]: I have seen those tiny hats mentioned on the UK forum. So cute, they are like little egg cozies.

Anyway ! enough about me , how is everyone :slight_smile:

Love them Rita.
