The Young Knitter, Headband Pattern

What do young knitters do before breakfast? My granddaughter happily knitting a another headband (pattern below) with Sugar n Cream yarn called Summer Splash. I think she has knitting fever; she says this kind of fever is fun. :))
T's Headband Pattern
Materials: Size 7 needles
Very small ball worsted weight cotton yarn such as Peaches & Creme will make several headbands.
Cast on 8 stitches (or more for a wider band)
Row 1 and all rows: Knit
Keep knitting until the headband fits around your head snugly.
Bind off the stitches and sew together with a darning needle.

Hello March

These daffodils in our pasture are the first ones we've seen this year. They started popping out last week during a snow flurry, but today they're really enjoying our 65 degrees F weather. The lovely weather will surely change in a few days, though, so we're enjoying it while we can. I've been knitting a lot the past week, but I'm not finished with a cute little blue something on my needles so I can't show that till next week. In the meantime...What's this? you ask. Psycho(delic) sausage links? _snickers_ No, they're knitted hair curlers! (Go ahead and click for a better pic.) Nifty, huh. I knitted them using leftover yarn & the free pattern from Mombot Companion. The curlers are easy to make & very soft so you can sleep quite comfortably in them. How innovative is this?
Now, here they are in a synchronized spiral formation...
Synchronized seahorse formation...
And lastly, the synchronized seahorse swirly romp. I'm thinking about entering them in the Olympics in Seoul. What do you think?
Granddaughter #1 has been busy designing a few things herself. She's been making dog collars for some of her stuffed toys, and here she's modeling a crocheted bracelet with a cute little flower.It, also, doubles as a headband for her little Husky buddy. Cute, huh.
Until next week, Y'all, knitlikeyoumeanit!
