Knitting Dragonflies

I have been knitting over the holidays. A little, some light knitting that I don’t have to think to hard about. Looks like I’ve got a red theme going… Some house slippers… Easy pattern here Going to knit another pair for a girlfriend in the hospital. It has been cloudy and cold here, a little snow falling. So we have been watching some movies. I knitted an easy cap while watching Star Trek, (picked out by Steve) and Julie & Julia.   (for me).  This allows for a lot of knitting and spinning. Here is the pattern (see hat above) Easy Knitted Cap I used approx. 200 yds of worsted wt 100% wool Galway in dark red US 4 circular knitting needles or size to gauge(i use the magic loop method, see here ) Gauge = 17 sts and 24 rows, 4 x 4 swatch Cast on 76 stitches, be careful not to twist when joining the circle. Knit 2, purl 2 every row for 2 1/2 inches. Now starting knitting all around until 7-9 inches, about to the top of your head. Decrease using: Mark be
