Firstly I have made a rather funky head band that is great for keeping your ears warm without squashing your hair (not that I've got a lot!).![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzH3LwuCZTh1AhGC2xrBjm7cYC7wHp-sul9P2ifz3lFD4I0mZW0IC22jwwCsKkQCabMBczI55bUaZlbqR9eI5g3pNMq6EsAvA2zobEHcfwqr6lPT7OcyLDTW1naJ4NxV1-tJTlf_lXarI/s320/calorimetry+2.JPG)
The pattern is Calorimetry by Kathryn Schoendorf and I used half a ball of the Twilley's Freedom Spirit leftover from Ravenscar. It is a great pattern to knit - easy without being boring - and only takes an evening to make.
I've also crocheted a slouchy beret for myself.
I'm making good progress on Rona. I'm making squares in between other projects and I'm about a third of the way through them. I've made all the fiddly squares first - so that only the quicker granny squares are left.
With the new chunky yarn I bought last weekend I've started making Paisley, the chunky jacket by Kim Hargreaves.
Finally, I've made the badger.
It took a while to get the face right - but it was a fun challenge. I loved making this. The badger is now on its way to Bristol - postal strikes permitting. I'll publish the pattern very shortly.
