Spring is in the air

I haven't blogged in over a month. Wow!

Spring is in the air and I love being outside all the time. My knit basket always is with me, so I can sit on the park bench and knit while my little guy plays on the playground. Sometimes I just sit in front of my house and knit. I certainly get a lot done that way ;)

Right now, I am facing the challenge of finishing a crochet hat, that I started. I absolutely love the pattern, but somehow I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Instead of shaping up like a hat, it looks more like a lampshade or maybe a skirt. So maybe, I should just stick with knitting.

Here is my attempt at a crochet hat:

See how it gets wider the higher it gets?

I made a hat for my friend's mom and here is the result:


Now I can use the next couple days to get ready for the yard sale this Saturday.
