Despite my aforementioned natural disaffinity for wearing red (talked about, yet worn here), I decided to knit myself a pretty lace patterned red cashmere hat for Christmas. Truth to be told, I saw a paparazzi shot of Taylor Swift wearing a similar one and I thought it adorable. I got all inspired and there I was, buying seasonally festive red yarn and picking out a pattern. I happen to think the hat came out great and I really do love the rich color. It’s perfect for keeping warm on brisk snowy walks around Lost Lake in Whistler and it matches my favorite festive red lip gloss, Stila’s Lip Glaze in Cranberry.

I also knitted the mohair fingerless gloves I’m wearing here several years ago. I’ve worn them to death and thus, they’ ve turned into total fur balls. I think it adds to their character, wouldn’t you agree? And don’t you just love my silver metallic nail polish? I call them my Tron Legacy nails. Santa brought the color to me in my stocking, its “Diamond Geezer” from Butter London’s new Heavy Metal Collection.

Hi Tara,
I love your hat and the color is beautiful, my favorite shade of red. I may have to learn how to make it.
It looks like you are having a nice visit up in Whistler.
Have a great New Years.
Love,
Robin

Great job on the cashmere hat! It looks great and wasn’t that yarn the BEST treat to knit? Might be time to knit some more fingerless mitts, but you are right they do look cozy.
