Have you ordered the

 It is so fun to go to the mail box and 

find that package from jimmy beans wool.

and there is also other goodies included.

Each bag comes in a cute little 

Canvas Zipper pouch.

And tucked inside is 4 or 5 balls of wool.

A packet of cleanser soak.

A pattern, knit, crochet or both.

and a few other goodies.

This beanie bag had 5 balls of wool, 

and  fun pompom makers.

This pouch had 4 different textures 

and shades of gray

 and a yarn needle included. 

 This bag had  purple shades and 

this beautiful Shawl stick.

I made this Granny Square Beanie from the 

December and November Beanie Bags.

I just randomly added each ball of wool,

 when one ran out,

Added a little flower with a button.

This is the crochet pattern I used:

Autumn and Spring Hat

I haven't decided what I want to make 

with January's Beanie bag wool.

or the crochet pattern.
I Love them both!

Colorado Beanie - Top Down | Posh Pooch Designs

The Colorado Beanie - Top Down.
Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach of
Posh Pooch Designs

The perfect Beanie for the Colorado Lover!  
And who isn't?

It is perfect for skying, climbing, hiking, Jeeping or 
what every fun thing you love to do in Colorado!

It is perfect for Men, Women and Boys and Girls! 

This New Design was in the works for a while.

I was inspired by a Eyeball beanie

  I saw a boy wearing,

when I took my grand daughter to the local

 pumpkin patch.

It was knit, but I thought that style would look great

 using our Colorado Flag.

So I made a sketch and went off my drawing.

And This Awesome Beanie hat

 is what I came up with.

I absolutely love it, 

and love wearing it all over our town. 

I get lots of compliments!

I chose to use worsted weight yarns, 

and designed the beanie in 3 sizes.

The Blue portion of the beanie is worked by carrying

Be careful to not pull the yarn to tight or it will bunch,

 and not lay flat.
