When you buy a ball of yarn

 

there are so many things you can knit or crochet.  I'm a knitter, never been one to crocher, I can't get the hang of it.  I've tried, believe me I've tried.

I had just finished the quilt and this yarn seemed to match it well.  I thought I could donate it with the quilt, but the place I was donating couldn't accept it.  So onto another plan.  Just knit when I felt like and then think about where it would go.

I knitted a little hat one night and the next night two wee mittens.  The pattern for the mittens is in a very old knitting book I purchased when the grands were little.  Sorry I couldn't find a link to see if the pattern is still available.  I can't give you the pattern because I would be violating copyright.  Danged if you do, danged if you don't.

I had yarn left, so I opted to knit another hat in a different size.  I really love the looks of this yarn so I may be knitting it up again.

It's a Mary Maxim yarn called Starlette and it's a worsted weight.  It is really affordable at $5.99 a ball or if you buy more you get a deal.  I get the deal!!
