Making Kaps for Kendall

After passing on the word about Kaps for Kendall I thought I should make a few caps, too. After all, I have a HUGE pile of fabric and I’m sure there is a piece or two of fleece that would make a few hats to help the cause.            Here’s the fleece I picked out, bright and colorful enough to brighten anyone’s spirits. I used the measurements and guide from Cheri’s “I Am Momma- Hear Me Roar: Upcycled Boy Hats”

After finishing the hat, it sort of reminded me of a kippah. Have to perfect this one for my use. Cute, though.

Made a couple more hats using a pattern I’ve played with before. Here’s the final result.

Too Cute!

Keep a Kid Warm This Winter

Found this in my mail box today. Craftsy teamed up with Project Linus and Kaps for Kendall and the “Keep a Kid Warm This Winter Campaign.” The goal is to collect 1000 blankets (Project Linus) and 1000 hats (Kaps for Kendall) by December 15, 2011. Knitted, crocheted, sewn, it’s all good. Here’s the link:

And, here are a few hat patterns to get you started.

Knitted Hat and Scarf. Traditional is always in style.

Color Blocks, totally crocheted. Comes with the cardigan pattern, too.

         This one is sewn from fleece remnants. Vintage styling and very cute!
