Join, being careful not to twist stitches, place marker and begin knitting in the round. As you knit around this first row (keeping the double knitting section as set in the cast on row), you’ll notice four gaps, on either side of each ear flap. When you get to those, K2tog to close them up. At the end of the round, you should have 70 (77, 84, 96) stitches on the needles.

Continue next round working the eyelash and double knitting (face) sections as set but on this round start to work from chart in blue double knitting to represent the mouth. For newborn and infant sizes start on row 5 of the chart.

Next in white only continue working eyelash yarn and double knitting sections straight untill

piece measures 3.5 (4.5, 5, 5.5) inches from the cast-on row.

Working only in eyelash yarn (knitting across double knit section with eyelash) begin the decreases as follows, switching to DPNs when the diameter of the hat is too small for your circular needle:

FINISHING

This yarn is not suitable to use to sew up your cushion, so use

an appropriate colour of sewing cotton.

Gently pull the two pieces of fabric into even heart shapes. Place them together with the purl sides facing each other. Starting at the bottom tip of the heart, firmly back stitch the edges together about 1cm from the edge. Stitch all the way around, but leave a 10cm gap down the final straight side of the heart shape. Turn the cushion inside out by pulling it through the gap you have left. Stuff with enough filler to give the cushion shape. Sew up the gap neatly.

Carnival Scarf

Eyelash yarn is a lot of fun to work with and to wear. The yarn is made of a central core with little strands of fiber coming off of it that look sort of like eyelashes.
Different brands of eyelash yarn have different lengths of eyelashes. Some products have varying lengths within the same product. Some have very solid masses of eyelashes, while some are a little more sparse. Pick a yarn that you like the look of for this quick and easy scarf project.

Childs Tam - Free Pattern

The Tam o’ Shanter is a Scottish bonnet  originally worn by men but, women have now adopted a form of this hat and it is  known as a “Tam” or a “Tammy.'' The hat is named after the Robbie Burns poem Tam o’ Shanter, written in 1790 which is often illustrated by a character wearing a hat in this style. The hat is usually made of wool and has a pompon ( known as a toorie) in the centre. It is quite a floppy type of hat with the crown sometimes twice the diameter of the head.  Originally they were dyed blue ( the famous “blue bonnets”), owing to the limitation of available dyes nowadays you can find them in every colour imaginable. This is a similar version suitable for a child, i made this in the same eyelash yarn as the poncho in yesterdays post as they are to be worn together by the same child.

Alice’s Tam

Size 5mm needles
Cast on 85 sts and work K1,P1 rib for 6 rows
( as the eyelash yarn is very soft i knit the rib in a double knit yarn in a similar shade)
Work 24 rows stocking stitch  (1 row knit, 1 row purl) and in the first knit row increase 12 sts evenly aross -96st
Decrease row1 *k10,k2tog, rep from *
Decrease row2 *p2tog,p9, rep from*
Decrease row3*k8, k2tog, rep from*
Decrease row4*p2tog,p7, rep from*

Continue to decrease every row, having a stitch less between dec’s until 16sts remain. Cut yarn leaving a long strand and pull through remaining stitches, tighten and sew seam.

Instead of adding a pompon in the centre i decided to add a flower at the side to make it a little more girlie.

The flower is made as follows:

Cast on 4 stitches.
Row 1. Knit front & back of 1st stitch, knit 3 (5sts)
Row 2. Knit front & back of 1st stitch, purl 4 (6sts)
Row 3. Knit front & back of 1st stitch, knit 5 (7sts)
Row 4. Knit front & back of 1st stitch purl 6  (8sts). Cut yarn leaving a 4’’ tail and leave on a spare needle.
Repeat 4 more times but do not cut yarn on last petal

Row 5. Join all petals by knitting across (40 sts)Row 6. Purl 2 together across row (20 sts)
Row 7. Knit 2 together across row (10sts)
Row 8. Purl 2 together, purl 3 together, prul 2 together, purl 3 together

Thread yarn through stitches and pull tight and sew into place. Secure all loose ends.

 Attach the flower to the hat and any little girl will love this Tam.

Childs Raspberry Poncho

Ponchos are like sweaters without arms. They cover the whole top of your body and the bottom is open so you can slip it on and off easily. Some patterns require no shaping at all as they are knitted in two pieces (although this pattern is four pieces), that are then stitched together, leaving a hole for the head. Ponchos are great spring and autumn accessories because they keep you warm but allow some air circulation through the bottom of the poncho. They're very stylish too! so why not whip this one up for a child. I’ve just finished this for my neice’s daughter. I chose a raspberry coloured eyelash type yarn which is lovely and warm without being heavy.

GAUGE:  11 sts + 18 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] in Stockinette st (k on RS, p on WS).

12 sts + 16 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] in Mock Granny st. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE.
