Last week in RS we were told that our Christmas project this year was to provide hats for the homeless shelter. Each woman was to knit (with the hoop knitter) 5 hats. I had tried making ONE hat with a hoop knitter a couple of years ago and got bored to tears.......couldn't even manage baby size, so I finished it for a doll!!! However, I do have a knitting machine!! I can make a hat start to finish in about an hour...........So I made 4 yesterday and one today! My 5 are DONE!! Hurrah!! The two that are really dark are multicolored purple.....really pretty!

Yay for Mom!! They look great :)
Those are great hats, Mom!
I was just noticing yesterday how many of Joshua's favorite things have come from you. Thank you so much!
Cool machine! You have a knitter, an ebroiderer, a surger. . . isn't that kind of cheating?
Well, probably.......but it sure makes the work go faster...it is kind of like having a washer, drier, dishwasher, vacuum........just on the 'creating' side. I knit one more hat (well, actually since the picture 3 more), but one is a really cute fuzzy purple that I think I will give to Summer for Christmas. It is very cute!
