What was your inspiration?

my oldest Granddaughter Meg's birthday is around the corner, she has a new winter coat in shades of purple, so a new hat & scarf were in order... though i used her youngest cousin, Ava, as my model!!

What are you most proud of?

learning to do short rows knitting the hat & doing a fairly good job of altering the pattern for a child-

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

if a pattern has the look you want, dont be afraid work on making it work for you, just takes some time and a couple of tries!!
