Garter Stitch Ear-flap Hat

I finished another hat late last night.  I made an ear-flap hat using the garter stitch.  I love the colors and think that it came out looking really nice.  This morning I had both of my kiddos try it on to check the size.  This caused a small argument over which one was going to be able to keep the hat.  I had to tell them that unfortunately neither of them would be able to keep this hat.   I need to add it to my inventory for the craft show next week.  And, if it doesn't sell at the craft show it needs to be added to my Etsy shopI would be happy to post instructions for this hat if anyone is interested.  Just leave me a comment and I can put a post with instructions. 


Garter Stitch Ear-Flap Pattern


The other hat that I finished this week is a Grey Honeycomb Hat.  This hat is actually more of a beanie style.  It was made using a pattern from the book "I Can't Believe I'm Loom Knitting" .


I have already put another project on the loom.  Last night after taking the ear-flap hat off the loom, I immediately put some orange yarn on to make a pumpkin hat.  I am using Vanna's Choice yarn.  This is my first time using this yarn and I am liking it so far.  I will post pictures of the hat once it is finished.  

**  I was asked to add the pattern for the Garter Stitch Ear-flap hat.  If you click on the link under the picture it will take you to the post.  :)

  7. How many pegged loom and how many rows is the beanie hat? My hats keep turning out too big. I'm going for a beanie for a male.
