Two by Two hat for charity

 I know a a few things:

1. I have a lot of inexpensive wool yarn that I won't use in my upcoming knitting projects
2. I know how to knit hats
3. My church has an outreach to the homeless in our area

Add 1 + 2 + 3 and it will equal:  I'm knitting hats for the homeless

I made my first hat using the Two by Two pattern by Anne Gagnon and Knit Picks Wool of the Andes superwash worsted yarn.

I was knitting at the Kids' Check In Desk at church (my Sunday role) and so many of my kids were curious about what I was doing with that "ball of cat stuff" -- an exact quote from one child.  I decided then to buy a bunch of needles and make "learn to knit" kits.  I switched to a hat pattern with a lot of straight knitting, rather than this one with all ribbing, and already gave away my first kit to a mother/daughter duo.

Hopefully this completed hat will be useful to its new owner.  I have already cast on another hat for another kit...
