Made more hats for Cheyenne River Reservation - all (but one) made from donated baby yarn in yellow or blue, and leftover sock yarn - the ends after socks were made.

8 hats and 5 pr small socks My third shipment this year all from scraps and leftovers

made about a dozen hats using up leftover yarn - in several different sizes, but a lot of them big -mailed to the Cheyenne River Youth Project -https://lakotayouth.org - didn't get a picture  Now I'm making socks for my sister, whose favorite color is orange  Socks were finished and mailed. Sent another pkg to Cheyenne River - abut 10 more hats from leftover yarns Also made another pair for my sister - tofutsies (no picture), and sent a pair of socks to my older sister(no picture),  and then sent a pair of striped socks to my sister-in-law (no picture). Also sent 2 knitted dishcloths to each of my sisters and brother - orange and red (maybe bright yellow and red??) Knitting more hats for Cheyenne River - black and white... separately, not black-and-white, because the yarns are such different weights. Again, just knitting up leftovers... The knitting bowl was a present from my daughter.

Hats and Baby Socks for Cheyenne River Reservation  My daughter and her family live in Southern Texas - My son and his family live in Florida. I love to knit - but my husband and I have all the socks, mittens, hats we need. However, lots of people need warm socks, hats, and mittens in South Dakota. They are Lakota Sioux  http://www.lakotayouth.org/ https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/NativeAmericanSupport/conversations/messages 

four pr mittens, one pr small adult sox, two pr baby sox mailed today to Cheyenne River Reservation in South Dakota. It's already cold up there.

I started knitting mittnz for the Cheyenne River Reservation annual blitz. I had recently seen my old trusty handwritten mitten pattern, but then lost it again (senility much?) So I looked at some patterns on Ravelry. None of them were for the gauge of my yarn and size of my hands. I wanted mittens with a long cuff and a gusset, not afterthought thumbs. So I figured out my own pattern, making them the size to fit my (rather large) hands. The yarn is Lion Brand Amazing, in 2 different colorways.  Now, can you believe that each pair was knit from a single skein of yarn, except for about a half-inch of the top and one thumb? I love the yarn and all the colors! It is soft, too. But these really don't look like mates. As soon as he saw the brown ones, my husband assumed they were for him, but he wanted a finger flap. That's so you can get your fingers free without getting your whole hand exposed and maybe losing the mitt. I made him some about 35 years ago. So I bought anot...

more Socks for Cheyenne River I am using up the ends of yarn left after making myself a pair.
