What’s on the wheel today? A pretty pastel combo of hand-dyed wool along with accents of undyed, curly wool locks.  …I’m thinking - SPRING! :)

Modeling my latest hand-knit hat - a variation on the “Wurm” pattern from Ravelry.  This was a fun, quick & easy project & I would definitely make another, maybe just a little longer….I tend to get impatient at the end & finish em too soon.  Hehe. Not bad though ;)

Hand-knit hat I whipped up in one afternoon. A variation on the “Wurm” pattern on Ravelry.
