Baktus

I have finished the Baktus scarf and I LOVE it. Baktus is a garter stitch scarf, that is named after a character in a Norwegian children's classic novel. Any yarn and any needle size can be used to knit this scarf. You can knit it as large or as small as you want to. I used size 8 knitting needles and Caron Simply Soft paints, in the color Oceana. This scarf is going to be a gift. The pattern for this scarf is here

Hunting hat

My Son enjoys pheasant hunting. The hunters are to wear blaze orange so that I other hunters can see them. This is a basic 2 x 2 rib knit hat for him. I knit it nine inches long so that he could cuff the hat up, to keep his ears warmer.

A new hat for my Grandson

I knit this totally adorable hat for my Grandson. This hat is knit flat and seamed up the back. Then the earflaps are added. It is a very easy to knit pattern. the pattern can be found here  The only problem with the hat, my little Grandson did not want to keep it on his head. LOL

Not What She Seems by Victorine Lieske

I only paid 99 cents for this book. I am giving it 2 1/2 stars. It is an interesting who done it, with many suspects, but I felt like the book was missing something. It was supposed to be a suspenseful, romance mystery. There was not a lot of suspense, no romance, but it did have a good bit of mystery. I did not figure out who done it until the end.
