Sports

Sports teams are always popular. Especially, football. I've made items for my friends, my kids, my husband and even teachers. Most of the time, I just make striped hats. I've bought patches and have sewn them on. I've also experimented with duplicate stitch. (The lettering in a different color )

For these, I used "Wool-Ease" "Thick and Quick" Yarn

I started to use this same hat pattern, but with bigger needles, thicker yarn, less stitches and sharper decreases

CO 40 stitches on 13 circular needles 
knit 6” and then start decreases

40– knit 3 K2tog 
32 —knit 2 k2tog
24-knit 1 k2tog
16 K2tog

This pattern took me a whole summer to do, (it took forever and didn’t come out perfect), but I’m pretty proud of it. From the front of the shirt, to the back it’s a rainbow. Based on this pattern https://giftofknitting.com/blog/how-to-knit-a-crop-top-free-knitting-pattern

Introduction

Introduction I have two kids who I stay home with and pour my heart into. They are in 2nd grade and preschool. In, 2017, as a young mother of a toddler, I took advantage of learning how to knit from my grandmother. It was a great way to learn one of the skills she learned from her mother, my Nana, (who knitted, crocheted, tatted, made dolls, and much more.) I became very interested in knitting and my daughter was my little admirer. She watched me create items, saying Mama was “Making Yarn”. After awhile, I found it hard to find patterns for what I wanted to make. I decided to start a blog using the phrase “Making Yarn”, to  organize and share some of my projects. I hope this blog will inspire those who knit or crochet, or just enjoy hand-made items.
