Comments: I decided to try something different for the hat this time. I really like this pattern. It's well written and works up very fast. I did make one change. The cuff/ear-flaps are seed stitch in the pattern. I did garter stitch to better match the rest of the set.

The booties.

Comments: I used a larger size needle for the main part of the booties. I like it much better. Thy booties are just a little bit larger, but not so much they don't fit within the measurements required for this size.

I am very pleased with my workmanship on this set. I'm thinking about entering it in the fair this year.

I have started Layette set #11.

Live long and prosper. \\//
