Philosopher's cap

I missed recording two knitting projects, but here is the latest, a simple roll-up cap designed by Philosopher's Wool Company. The luscious yarn is local, 60% mohair and 40% wool from Wellington Fibres in Elora, Ontario. The model is my trans friend, Jaye Crawford. The hat will go on the silent auction block at our concert tonight to help raise funds for the Rainbow Chorus Waterloo-Wellington.

Fingerless gloves

My parents and daughters are in town for the concert tonight, so I had an opportunity to photograph these fingerless gloves I knit for Brenna for Christmas. I was inspired by ghostsandrobots, who wore a pair of these (in dark grey, I think) to Toronto last fall. She kindly pointed me to the pattern from Crystal Palace yarns. I used another mohair-wool yarn from Wellington Fibres (I think this colour mix is called "Spring Break".
