Bash the winter blast!


Roxy models the incredibly cute and cozy Lyra's Cap and Autumn Wowza Scarf

We're having a serious winter blast coming through this weekend and are gearing up for the snow with extra snacks and fun projects. 

A quick and easy project that you can finish in a short time is the Lyra's Cap.  I found the pattern on Sarah Sutherland's site, ParallaxKnitting a few months ago, but haven't had a chance to make it.  I finished it in a couple of hours last night and have already worn it out and about. 

You may remember the cap from The GoldenCompass and it caused quite a stir in the knitting communities.  Sarah's cap is made with 1 skein of Rowan Ribbon Twist in Rustic.  My cap was made with some unidentified bulky yarn in my stash and 1 strand of Patons Nuance in Mythic.  This hat makes an excellent companion piece for the Autumn Wowza Scarf, November's free pattern on knit1fotheroad.com.
