Hi @Oaktree @Gwynn @BlueBay @Former-Member @Eve7 @Daisydreamer @outlander and knitting forumites here. Well done on all the knitting!

 

As I was feeling stressed and anxious about an upcoming Ndis meeting which was happening later in the afternoon yesterday, I decided to start knitting another beanie to help calm me down. Beanies are good for that with me, especially doing the rib pattern in the bottom as it helps centre me and keeps me in the moment. Anyway, I just finished it tonight and it will be ready to add to my pile to go to the charity that I knit for when they reopen. I hope you like it. I call this the choc mint beanie!283C881E-7BC9-4A6B-86D0-99BB96E650FF.jpeg

With this pattern, I ensure that I do 10 rows of rib and 30 rows of stocking stitch to make it a bit bigger so it caters for more people. It's the pattern I posted a bit earlier with some slight alterations. That's why it looks a bit different to the pattern @Oaktree 

@Gwynn I'm up to the last sleeve on my baby blue jumper but have taken a break as I really needed to knit a beanie or 2 to help with my MH. I did manage to buy a pack of 30 x 50g balls of yarn/wool from Spotlight on sale called a Baby Go pack that will allow me to knit 6 jumpers for a cost of something like $5 a jumper for the charity that I knit for which is great value I believe. 

 

Have fun everyone!
