 Hi loves 

With winter upon us—though I’m in the tropics, so it doesn’t really affect me—I welcomed the new year by diving into some lovely yarn and a nice pattern. I spent some time scrolling through YouTube for inspiration. I watched Granny Gaia's tutorial for a crochet mock neck top and attempted it a few times, but I didn’t have enough of the yarn I originally wanted to use, and I wasn’t keen on any substitutes.

After that, I shifted my focus to Sirin's crochet tutorials and decided to make a hat. This was particularly exciting since I had just received some new yarn and was eager to try it out.

For the hat, I used the slip stitch technique from the Crochet Top video to create the brim and the Alpine Stitch for the main part. I loved how it turned out. What do you think?

First Video/Project of 2025.

My nephew claimed it while it was being made and in his words "Aunty Melissa, mine".  How could I have said no?

Until next time, let's be friends!
