Waiting for my latte to cool

I figured I'd post some recent pictures of hats I've made while my latte cools enough to sip:

I had started this one with the intention of making it a size 2-4T. But it turned into an ooops. I must have skipped a stitch. So it now belongs to a sweet girl I know:)

I made this hat awhile ago, but as I do with so many hats it sat in my hat pile without being finished. So I finally darned in the ends and added a flower.

A flower in the rough

I recently attempted a black hat with the skull and cross bones on it. Which I think worked out well. It's knit. Soon I'll be making a pink one with a black skull.







I also though that I would attempt it as a pink crocheted beanie. Which hasn't been working out so well. I've ripped it out twice already. This is the best it's turned out, but it's still looks wonky. I don't have room for the crossbones. Back to the drawing board for this one! Rrrrriiiipppp




And I also finished this beanie. It's a rose pink with a double layer white flower that has a pale yellow centre. Very cute & girly!

My latest creations

An adult (lrg size) skullcap made from a cotton/nylon blend.









A toddler purple beanie/flapper crocheted with a white flower & glass beads









Various flowers made from 100% cotton. that I think I'll likely sell as "supplies" They can easily be added to different things - like glued to flip flops to brighten them up a bit









I think this is my favorite hat right now. It's made from 100% cotton and perfect for the spring! And it's machine wash & dryable. It's sized for a 2-3yr old.

Meet Franny the Bath Mitt - hehe. Again made out of cotton.
















A lilac Adult flapper hat











And lastly another barrette I made:

Another Skully & Barrette

I made another cute skull cap. Brown with the beaded flower attached. Very cute! It's made from a cotton/nylon blend. Light weight, perfect for the spring/fall. And it's hard to tell from the picture but the brown is just a bit shimery (likely the reason for the nylon blend). This is a smaller hat then most of the others I've made. I'd estimate it to fit a 9-16mth child. (Just a bit to small for Carter's head!)

And I've also attempted taking a crocheted beaded flower and attaching it to a barrette, which I think turned out pretty good. Don't you? I'm going to make some of the smaller flowers and try putting two on a slightly larger barrette to see how that works out too.

Something new

I have all these great ideas of things I want to try to crochet with. The first was beads. I think I was sucessful in one of my attempt. Still trying it with different type of yarn & beads. The last one I did didn't turn out well, but I'm learning from my mistakes.

Here are some pictures of my latest creation. A pink skully with beaded crochet flowers! What do you think?
