Even though Christmas is technically over, I wanted to share with you one of my Christmas knitting projects and did not want to wait until next year. I found this amazing free pattern for an ornament that depicts the nativity on it.

Are you a Dr. Who fan? You do not have to be to love this little guy.
While it is beginning to warm up here in Florida, some parts of the country still have snow. At only three and a half inches, these miniature snowmen are sure to be a big hit.
In November, I shared three patterns that are part of an e-book. The book has now been released.
The Knit Seasons by Stana D. Sorter is available on Ravelry for $15.00. The book contains 31 different patterns. The patterns are also available separately. There are so many cute projects in this book that cover a variety of topics. I will definitely be knitting a few more of the patterns.
I test knitted three of these: from left to right Bucket Hat (aka. Camouflage Hat), Boo Boo Bear (aka. Teddy Bear) and Blue Bell Hat.
Happy Knitting
P.S. Don’t worry, I still like free patterns and plan to use as many free patterns as I can.
Recently I had the chance to test knit two hats for Stana’s Critters. This first hat is my favorite. It resembles a flower. Each petal is knit separately, then joined to form the base of the hat. It used a little bit of green from my stash to create an i-cord calyx. (Why yes, I do homeschool my children and we recently studies parts of the flower.)
As I told Stana, I love, love, love this hat! I only had one problem with it. My daughter is 11 and thinks she is too big for a hat like this. It would be perfect for a little girl. So I have included in the box of hats to go to the orphanage in Kenya.
When the pattern is released I will update this post.
Happy Knitting.
UPDATE: The pattern can be purchased on Ravelry here.
