Christmas Knitting, round 1

I've been doing a lot of knitting for Christmas. A lot of it is a bit hush-hush (the recipients either read or know about my blog), but some things are not-so-secret. This is one of my latest Christmas Knitting creations:

It's called a "Meathead hat" (don't ask....I don't know where the name comes from). The pattern is by Larissa Brown and I made it as part of the group of test knitters for a knitting book she is doing.


I was originally thinking I'd give it to my 9-year-old sister for Christmas but then Cambria (the 22-year-old sister) called and said she wanted it instead. Hmmmm.


Since there is still the possibility that I might need to send it to Larissa to take pictures for her book (I'll know by the end of the week) it might turn out that nobody will get it for Christmas.

I guess it will be one big surprise.

  1. Love it. Love it. It is so not Rob Reiner's character on All in the Family.

  2. I am digging the 'punk rock' theme in relation to knitting - :)

    Good times friend - and keep up the crazy knitting action.

  3. I love love love that hat! I missed out on being in the test group and everytime I see someone who has made one I get a little sad. I will just have to wait for the book. Great job!
