Toboggan... Earth Tones

Handmade Design by Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, AL

I love loom knitting... I love my Knifty Knitters!!!!!... I have made John-Robert another toboggan... he is loosing all his hair this weekend... a shaved head... I am so worried his head is going to be cold!!.... He has lots of hair it is going to be really different for him!....I hope to get him three boggans made!! But I have so much to do... and I am sick too! 

This hat is really simple... I did it on the purple round loom...I knitted for the first rows with one thread so that the rim of the hat would roll up...then I purled the rest of the hat, in two colors...I have started decreasing back to one strand of yarn for the last about 5 rows so that when I draw the hat up it is much less bulky... on this hat I did a yarn over on every other peg for the last row... I knitted the bottom yarn over the top yarn... so that when I gathered the top it would be even less bulky... I love the little design it made in the middle.

Thanks for looking... Hugs, Jeannie
