knifty knitting for beginners

a tutorial on something so easy even i can do it :)

1knit
(Boston Legal is entirely optional... but Denny Crane makes knitting far FAR less dull :)

rule of thumb: the bigger your head is, the thicker the wool should be...

"say cheese Mr Bumps!' he is proudly wearing a cranberry hat made with the littlest blue circle

for anything but cat hats i use the green or yellow circle... to do stripes just do 4 rows of each color

  1. you crack me up, inkyblack.
    those hats are adorable, but i love the power of wielding two big shiny sticks when i'm knitting ;-)
    then again...i'm way behind in my boston-legal watching, so maybe that's what i'm missing ;-)

  2. Awwww I want! We need hats up here!
    So cute! I love the santa hat on the cat. Although I would probably do it to a different show. Never been a watcher of Boston Legal, I did meet James Spader aka Alan Shore at Stator Bro's up here. He was picking out icecream with his kids..he acted how he acted in Pretty in Pink..mr oh so cool.
