One of my all-time favorite yarn brands is Lion Brand's Wool-Ease Thick & Quick.
I have made hats, cowls and recently this great purse.
This is a thicker yarn where you use bigger sized needles so the projects work up very quickly and the result is always wonderful! I have never been disappointed by this yarn.
The first set up pictures I am going to show you is the button hat. I use vintage as well as new buttons - the only thing is these buttons need to be big to make a statement. This hat is very warm and covers your ears well.
The next two hats I am going to show you is done with a great cable. It also has a nice brim that can be folded up or pulled down for extra warmth. Everyone looks great in this hat ... even me who looks horrible in hats.
Now I am going to show you several cowls. In case you don't know what a cowl is - it is a round scarf that you pull over your head. Bigger cowls are called infinity scarves which has no beginning and no end. Most cowls and infinity scarves are knitted using a circular needle.
I hope you enjoyed this little fashion show.
Tomorrow I will share with you some projects using another of my favorites - cotton yarn.
