Matching Hats

Happily, my sister took a photo of my nieces wearing their Christmas knitting -- a cardigan, hat and booties for Emily, and a matching big-sister hat for Sara. The yarn is my favorite -- Rowan handknit DK cotton -- and the patterns are by Debbie Bliss. I'll have to get a better cardigan photo to post -- I made a faux button band with really cute floral buttons from Covent Garden Market, and then used snap tape for the actual closure. (There's a photo of the cardigan as a WIP in an earlier post on my blog.)
