Jil’s Elf Hat
My sister is turning 19 on Monday, so I wanted to make her something. Her request was a “funky” hat — “You make a lot of hats,” she said, “but they’re all plain.” So here was my attempt at funkiness.

It was difficult to keep the shape even while I was making this little pattern, and also the fact that all the yarns were different types and weights didn’t help so much. I think it looks ok though!

Here are the ear-flaps — a key part of the request.

And now I am the elf!

Set of 6 Teal Potholders
They let me onto the airplane with my crochet hook (tangentially, Heathrow security is the funniest thing ever), so I started working on these potholders for my dad and his wife.

This was my first try at this design, so they aren’t that perfectly shaped.

My dad says they look like stingrays. I think stingrays are cool.

Sam’s Hat
Backtracking chronologically a little bit, this hat for Sam started in London, and finished somewhere between York and Edinburgh.

Here it is in detail, or actually just zoomed in; I didn’t manage to really document it so much.

Black and Teal Ski Mask
I made this one between Cardiff and Llantwit.

You can call it whatever you want to — Ski-mask, bike-mask, balaclava, pasamontanas, bank-robber-mask…etc.

Here’s the eye-window in detail.

And here it is from the side!

Teal Solomon’s Knot Scarf
I made this on an airplane, after making on orange one for my mama (a picture of which will go up soon).
