After saying I don't wear hats...I made some. I thought I'd give it a try with some knit fabric a friend gave me. I remembered I did have a few patterns for hats that came along with coats/jackets. So I looked them up and settled on two that looked do-able. Testing, One, Two...Ready?

You know I'm not going to waste a perfectly good circle of leftover fabric. My first foray into sewing with knits happened a week or so ago when I made a
top out of another gorgeous print from E's leftover stash. You can see it on my
Clothes for Winter page. I even bought one of those double needles to use with it. I don't know why I've avoided knits all this time...I guess I always thought they would be clingy or itchy. Not necessarily true. What do you think of knits? To wear or to sew...
