What I'm Working On
Right now I'm working on several different projects at the same time. I think I need to grow some more arms lol! I'm working on an order of four baby hats for someone that is having twins (a boy and a girl), and I've just about finished two of them. I'll post some pictures when I'm done with them.
I'm also working on some more fingerless gloves (this pair will be decorated with chevron lace) using sock yarn, and I'm continuing to work on a scarf that is also made of sock yarn (which is why it is taking longer to finish it). I love sock yarn (a much thinner yarn usually) since it comes in so many different colors and patterns!
Since I'm working on a few different projects, I thought it would be a good time to post some pictures of some of my past knitted projects. Hope you like them!

A Pumpkin Hat for Fall
I love Fall! I love seeing the leaves change, feeling the cooler weather, and I love pumpkins! So, I decided to knit a pumpkin hat in order to make Fall seem even closer then it is (where I live it is just barely starting to feel like it).
This pumpkin hat is also from a pattern found in Susan B. Anderson's book Itty-Bitty Hats. It is sized for 0-6 months old, and would look great for Fall photos! I made it using Swish Worsted yarn from Knit Picks (my favorite yarn to use for knitting baby things since it is so soft), and it is 100% Superwash Merino Wool. Which means it is machine washable and it gets softer with every washing.
I love the ridges in this hat, because it reminds me of the ridges found in real pumpkins! The ridges aren't as noticeable until the hat is being worn. The leaf is only attached at the base of the stem so the leaf will still move a little (like a real leaf found on a pumpkin).
Hope you like it!! I'm selling this hat for $16 (not including shipping), and it is also first come first serve. Be the first one to email me at knittedbyamanda@hotmail.com or to leave a comment on this post saying you would like to buy it and the hat is your's! :)

Pink Paper Bag Baby Hat
My goal is to try and have at least one knitted item finished and up for sale once a week. Hopefully I can keep up with this goal at least until the baby arrives! ;)
This is called the Pink Paper Bag hat (so called since it looks like a bag), and is from a pattern from the book Itty-Bitty Hats by Susan B. Anderson. I love this book! This hat is made using Swish Worsted yarn by Knit Picks and is 100% Superwash Merino Wool (it is machine washable). This also means that with every washing the hat will get softer and softer. The darker pink stripes seem to give it a ruffled look, but it will mostly straighten out when it is being worn. It will still have the baggy effect though which I think gives it character. I think this hat would be perfect for photo sessions! The hat is sized for 6-12 months, and I'm selling it for $18 (plus shipping). This is first come first serve! :)
If you are interested in buying this hat, please email me at knittedbyamanda@hotmail.com or comment on this post. I'll look at the time you emailed me or posted the comment to see who was first.
If you haven't already, like my Knitted by Amanda facebook page! :)
