It’s not often they get snow in the Atlanta area but I love this photo Chris sent me yesterday with all three of them wearing hats I knit!
I taught myself to knit and to crochet – it’s not hard if you find the right “beginner” book and YouTube videos help if you don’t understand something. They didn’t have all the videos when I taught myself but these days if I don’t understand something in a pattern or a stitch, I can usually find a video that lets me see a demonstration. Very helpful especially if you’re just starting out.
The kids had a real treat and as a southern girl I appreciate how amazing it is to get the very rare snowfall. Even better when you have a handmade hat to keep your ears warm!
What a great photo!
Great for you to see your hats being used. So happy for you that they sent a picture of them wearing them. Instant gratification.

Love this picture, such beautiful models showing your hats! Proud G’Mom and Mom! <3
Hi Mary! That looks like three people who adore you and they look pretty darn spiffy in those hats as well. You can’t help but smile when you see them, right?! ~smile~ Roseanne
What a wonderful photo!!! And the fact they are all wearing your hand knitted hats makes it even more special. I love knitted hats but I have a love/hate relationship with knitting. I have been trying to get it right for years and it is a struggle. I’ve taken some classes but honestly You Tube has helped me more then anything. My problem is that if I make a mistake I do not know how to fix it if I have gone too far. I love the pattern that Mo is wearing! Is that one pretty simple? If so could you please let me know the name of the pattern. I might be able to handle that one. Also, how about sizing? I did teach myself to crochet years ago waaaaaay before the Internet and love doing that. But I like hats knitted rather than crocheted. Thanks for all your advice and help!!
A picture suitable for framing! Such a good picture of your son and his girls.
Super cute family SNOW photo, Mary!!!
Your hats are cute but your family is cuter!
