Child Football Beanie Pattern

A friend asked me about a pattern for little boys that was not so girly and I mentioned the football beanie. The size needed was a small child. I sat down to write up the instructions quickly and well after half way through I remembered something one of my boys told  me. The DC ones look more lacy so I decided to redo the pattern with HDC. I am gonna post it here for all to share. However please note I did not make the hat in the correct colors I just made a mustard gold yellow one then pulled it out. If you make one you can share the pictures for all to see. The hat is made for 18" head.

I hope you will share pictures of your finished project. I forgot to mention the hook size is H. For some reason I left it out of the pattern.

So many changes

Looking at my blog I realize it has been quite a while since I have posted anything at all. Since my recent post I have moved from Mesquite, Texas up north east to lovely Auburn, WA. When I go to town to run errands I can see Mt. Rainier. Right now the mountains have snow tops so lovely. I really need a better camera so I can get some pic.

Another change is that with Omni I have lost a total of 54lb and still dropping. I am super excited to feel better and look better. I am also taking more of the Omni vitamins and generally feeling better to include having less pain from my nerve damage.

I have been working hard on designing baby dresses and little things for my grands. This past week I went to a bazaar sold lots of little Christmas Angels. I am currently working on a soccerball afghan/hat set as well as new dress designs.




On a silly side check out these boxers I made for one of my sons. I plan on making adjustments and writing the pattern. These were not quite right but still turned out pretty cute huh.


Hopping to become a better blogger for the new year and start offering some free patterns. I am working on an adult hat pattern now that will be available sometime this month. Just a basic hat but made for myself and loving the results. With a little sunshine I will be getting some pictures today.
