Sam told me that this year for Christmas I could knit him a beanie with earflaps. He said emerald green with some kind of white design in the middle. So I found a free pattern on the internet, ordered some yarn (100% merino wool), two skeins in green and one in white. Today I got the yarn in the mail and it was my day off so I got going. I started working on the pattern, and I even checked my gauge to make sure that it would turn out right. After having to change my needles a few times to get the right sizing I started on the real thing. Here is the finished product:
I think that it turned out really good! And I even looked up on the internet how to do the crochet edging. The only problem is that the actually beanie part (not including the ear flaps) is about six inches tall. So I think that this one might have to go to David or Josh until I can figure out what exactly went wrong.
