March 17th will be here before you know it and St Patrick's Day celebrations will be underway. Growing up with one side of the family Irish in Savannah, I had no choice but to keep the spirit of St Patrick's Day every year. My father referred to it as the "grandest day of the year" and through the years, I have come to embrace the celebration and take comfort in the power of the green. Who doesn't like a great parade and a chance to celebrate living in America?
Here are a few sites that will fix you up with adorable shamrock knit and crochet patterns to adorn your hats, scarves, mittens or other festive items.

Adorable Shamrockin' Hat from Polar Knits will keep you warm and in the spirit of the day.
Just thinking ahead and looking forward to seeing more green in our future.
