7 Hats

I'm a member of the HPKCC "Harry Potter Knit and Crochet" Cup group on Ravelry.  One of the fun challenges to take part in is Quidditch.  It's rather the fiber version of it.   For one day, one day only, you knit or crochet as many hats as possible within that day.  You post a picture of your hats and get points for the hats.  You can make adult or premie size.   This is the first time I participated and so I attempted my first set of hats. 

Here's my group:

I made 7, one being premie.  I used all scrap or novelty yarn from my misfits stash, the stash I had started to build prior to turning into a yarn snob.  (LOL).  I got a late start, say around 3-4 p.m., actually a little later than that, maybe more past 4.  If only I had truly started in the am, I surmise I could of made possibly 20 hats.  I averaged about 1 hat an hour.  not to shabby. 

As for other knitting news, I've started a test knit, and frogged it because of change in size to knit.  This is for a new yarn.  I'll share pics over the next day or so, as I've re-cast on this evening. 

Enjoy your Monday!
