Day 1- Mission Accomplished!

Day 1 task accomplished with the Rasta style, I'm looking a little bizarre but I don't like knit wear glamour shots.


Slouchy Rasta style profile


More conservative bottom rolled up style- this is good for keeping the ears super warm!


Okay so here is my completed project for day 1 of the knitting machine!! My mom said it's like a sweatshop- until I reminded her I get an hour for lunch!!
I took 2 serious photos of the hat to show it's versatility- one way for dorky snow wear and one way for when rocking the dreads! Just kidding I think it's super cute and I can't wait to see who gets it for a gift. This is radical yarn- it's Patagonia nature cotton, hand-dyed and earth friendly. Whoever gets it is going to luck out, it's 100% cotton so it's soft, light weight and not scratchy.

This slouchy beanie turned out fantastic!
Wow I love that pattern you used. Did you use your
fancy yarn from (Yarnia)?
Good work. Love the pictures!

Thank you very much, I'm glad you like it. The pattern was super easy to do and I'm also pretty happy with how it turned out. No, I haven't used the Yarnia cone yet. This one was left over from a sweater I made last summer. I ended up giving it my mom though.
