Sweets for the Sweet


Hi Knitters,

Just wanted to show you the Cupcake hat using the pattern Kay put in one of the recent KnitWit newsletters. I changed the yarn and needle sizes, using dk for the bottom and sportweight for the icing. It will fit a newborn. Soooo easy and fun.


Does anyone have any ideas for about 450 yds of merino sportweight yarn? It is cabled plied and shows patterns really well. I started a scarf using an offset pattern of K2tog, yo and then purling on the wrong side, making a fishnet look. While it is nice, it's a little boring and I think another pattern will show off the cabled plied yarn better. Let me know.


Love, Jane
