Knitted lately (the hat edition)

From top left going clockwise:

01 // Mini Helsinki Hat: I actually got the kit from Wool and the Gang and messed it up the first time around. I was discouraged but then did another go at it using yarn from Lion Brand and I was able to finish it looking kind of like what it's supposed to. I am not quite sure about the size though. The pattern I used is supposed to fit children ages 5-10 but it looks awfully small for that age group in my eyes. Or maybe not. Not too sure. I am itching to get the kit for the adult version of the Helsinki Hat because the ones with ear flaps are my favorite kind of hats.

02 // Knit Hat by Lion Brand: Yangkyu asked me if I could knit a hat for his niece in Korea. I found this free pattern on Ravelry and ta-da. I hope she likes it.

03 // Cable Knit Hat: I talked about this one here. It was my first attempt at a cable knit pattern. And it's in my favorite color.

04 // The Accidental Slouchy Hat: This was actually supposed to be a hat for Yangkyu's niece but I ended up using bigger needles than listed in the pattern and it was just way to slouchy and big for a little girl's head. So I call this the accidental slouchy hat. Me and Yangkyu take turns wearing it. I didn't know he liked the slouchy style so much.

What are you knitting up lately?

Amazing knits! Always in awe how you are making loads in the short period of time. I need to knit/ crochet more but always don't know where to look for free patterns, which is suitable for beginners etc.. perhap you can write up a little guide post for beginners? Just an idea so no pressure!

Hi fellow knitter:)
These look wonderful! I'm actually also working on a hat right now. As I recently finished a lovely shawl and wanted a hat to match.

They all look so good! Wish you would open an etsy shop. If you do, just remember to make sizes for big heads like me. LOL

Adorable hats! How do you have time to do anything else since you're knitting so much :)? I've stopped making scarves for now, but loved doing it.

your recent posts about knitting inspired me. so much so that the husband actually purchased yarn and a kit for me to get started what I stopped so long ago! I hope I can pick it up!
