Knitting for the Polar Vortex

I finished my magenta Gretel hat and knit up another as a Christmas present.

Turns out my daughter feels it's too loose so she's generously allowed me to share it with her for the time being. And just in time for the Polar Vortex! I've been wearing lots of things I've knit including 2 mohair sweaters from the Stitch and Bitch book that may be kind of loose and baggy but they are warm as anything and in beautiful colors. The dark pink one was knit after the lavender one and has a little more shaping in the waist (could have gone further with that...). Also the sleeves are still too long, but hey I was very warm and it's been nice to notice that so much of what I was wearing I made.
