This year for Christmas I am making presents instead of buying them.
For my cousin Neil (he's 13) I am making a Beanie hat (one that has ear flaps and strings) and a scarf.
I am using
Lion Brand Wool-Ease in Black and
Joann Sensations Casual Boucle in Purple. I will have to double up the purple stuff, it's kinda thin,
For the hat, I am using a pattern I found on the
Cider Moon website,
Jayne Beanie. For the scarf, I am using a patter I found on
Needleworks, the
Magical Wizard Scarf. I might change the scarf a bit to match the hat more.
I'll post pictures hopefully over the weekend.
