The sewing is piling up!!
With the knitting completed...the sewing and finishing is left. I figured out the instructions for the Batman hat which were a little confusing. I had to read it over a few times and think about it. I also asked someone on ravelry, who had also knit the hat , what she did so now I know what to do. For a little hat there is a lot of finishing.. a partial seam in the back... folding down and sewing the ears and finally duplicate stitching the bat on the front.
After I had finished all the knitting on the Brobee hoodie I needed to get the zipper. I ended up getting a red zipper because the colors were very basic at Joanns fabric. On this project I have to sew in the zipper and sew on the little points and tuck in a couple of ends.
All of the knitting was finished on my other projects so until I get the chance to work on all the finishing I started my next project with is a little hooded cape for Abby. The pattern is from Loop-d-Loop. I don't know why but I love knitting with really chunky yarn and I love how the stitches look. This project is knit on size 19 needles. So fun!!
You can find all my projects on ravelry.

I love knitting with chunky yarn too! And I love how lace looks in it.
One of my next projects is going to be a scarf knit on Size 35 needles with that new Berroco Link yarn. It should knit up rather quick!
That sounds fun Amanda.. I'll have to check that out!!
Love the Brobee, I think the red zipper compliments it nicely.
Thank. I was unsure of the zipper but it will have to do. (^_^)
