Semi-Winter Accessories

[firstfrost]

These are the remnants of a Christmas project. If I hadn't gotten sick and sat around like a lump all week, I probably would have finished them before I left. Now, the question is whether or not they should wait to be a *next* Christmas present! That might be a little mean. :)



I picked the original headband pattern because it had a cool-looking felted flower, but the pattern ended up being (once I got it) "knit a square, felt it, cut out the petals". I was hoping for something more interesting, and then my version was a little too flopsy. Maybe I didn't felt it enough. So I replaced it with a crochet rose, which is cute and I will have to remember for later.

The gloves are kind of neat. I agree that the pattern is subtle and better with a one-color yarn. That's funny with the flower. :-) I'd probably have been annoyed but I like your crochet solution.
