One more hat done in 5th grade! This student had some allergy type issues with wool, so she bought some cotton yarn, and it turned out great! I forgot to compensate for the different yarn, so with the same pattern (it is cast on 60, divided onto 3 needles, knit in the round) it ended up a little baggy, but really was great like that! We might weave in a little ribbon if she wants to cinch it up a bit, which would be cute too! This is my class of 32, no helpers or volunteers, so I am pretty amazed that anyone gets anything done! I have one student who will finish her second sock on Friday!
We are beginning a mosaic project for the 8th graders gift to the school...a huge undertaking, but do-able, right? I wish I could do woodworking with that class, but it is too big and there are not enough supplies and I have exhausted my handwork funds for the year!
