On the Needle-4 Sep

This week, I am starting to
organize and begin projects
for Christmas. I am a very
slow beginner knitter, so I
have to start early!
 
My husband is a teacher
and the crossing guard. The
Winter weather can be
nasty sometimes, so I am
knitting him a few hats
for his Christmas.
 
This week, I just started
the Ruben Hat by
Trelly Hernandez.

 
It is a free pattern I found
 
I am knitting it in wool
that is a dark moss green color
I have never done cables
before, so this will be a
learning experience for me.
 
What is On the Needle at your house?

Nothing warmer then a wool hat! I haven't worked with cables, either. It will be fun to see the gifts you create!

You're right, it's time to get going for the holidays. However did that happen? Nice hat pattern!

That looks like a very warm hat and I know your hubby will appreciate it in wool. Good luck with working with cables. Looking forward to seeing your progress in the future.
