free pattern by Littletheorem
One of the first things Edith asked me to knit for her when she moved into the nursing home, was a hat. She stayed chilled and she thought that might help. She asked for yellow and so I did a mustard yellow, which she loves.

I love this pattern because it looks good inside and out.

Laura got one and likes that it fits loosely
And it's spiral. Very easy knit.
Decided to make myself one in that same mustard color
 |
| a cute pompom came off of one of my throws, so I used it for my hat |
That was 2017. Now I've made a few more for Christmas 2018.
One of the fun things about settling back down in Texarkana is I have access to one of the best yarn shops in the country
 |
| which is where I got this wonderful Cascade yarn as well as the hank below |
 |
| It's made out of merino and baby alpaca. Super soft and fun to knit with |
 |
| Laura wanted another that would be warmer for her CO winters |
 |
| I just love how the top looks |
 |
| She opted for no pom-pom, but I placed the excess yarn ball to show how one would look |
our beautiful Laura Lee
 |
| And since she didn't have a pom-pom she could wear it under her helmet when she went snowmobiling |
3 more for Lisa, Odestine, and Pam -- the 2 on the outer edges are alpaca from Flatland Ranch in Kansas
 |
| Pam wore hers on a hike shortly after Christmas |

| Crystal has "Hair to Jesus"! |
Sherry Stone got a "pom-pom" hat for Christmas 2018 because she doesn't have bun. Looks cute on her!
 |
| Odestine 's was made with the wonderful Cascade baby alpaca and merino |
