Hopefully the beginning of an era?

For the first time in some years, Arielle has shown interest in knitting herself (rather than her ongoing interest in choosing yarns and patterns for me to knit her).? I think it would help her with fidgeting and sitting and waiting at rehearsals, and so does she.

?

She’s thinking either a hat to start or a shawl.? I’m thinking a hat because faster gratification, and am wondering if others have any ideas or pattern ideas to share.

?

Special thanks to Lise for the suggestion on Saturday.? Arielle adores Lise, so if she says it, it must be good ?

There are some nice hat patterns which are either for Noro or work well with Noro But it does depend how colourful her taste is. Would she wear a cowl? Quite quick with a biggish yarn so a rewarding starting point. I like Churchmouse for simple patterns which look elegant, and you can always jazz them up with colour......

Very interesting to hear of your plans and dilemmas......

There are SO MANY freebie hats on Ravelry, I think it depends on her inclination/taste.? Maybe something in bulky in colors she likes?? Maybe stripes, so there's something going on besides just knitting?? Here's a search -

Love hearing about the next generation of knitters!
