Name doily is done! ....and a Batman hat!

So I finished the name doily for my daughter, and matted it into an existing frame. The other name doily for my younger daughter is also done, but now I have to find just the perfect frame for it :)
Also made a Batman hat, the applique pattern is awesome! Super easy to follow....I just ended up sewing it a bit crooked :( Oh well, that's how you know it's handmade!
Things are definitely looking up weather-wise, and Spring break will be here soon :) More crocheting, I guess, and hopefully organizing my stash......
Keep on crafting, I would love to hear from you :)

What a fun guys hat pattern!

Moogly had this pattern for a hat for a very long time, and yes, I had seen it earlier. But what made me try it out right away was Stitch11's color combination and version. The pattern is the Leaping Stripes beanie by Tamara Kelly. Her video tutorial was super helpful. I just made one change, and that was to do the brim in all sc's instead of doing the sideways rows. My husband loved how the hat fits, and offered to pay me cash :D for one right away!

I guess the camo combination didn't really show the pattern very well :( Oh, no more of those then!
I also made an Infinity shells cowl (Pattern from The Crochet Crowd)....here is a photo...

Enjoying my 16 day winter break right now, so will definitely have more completed projects to share :) I'll be delighted if you leave me a comment about your projects.
