Seragita's Tam

This is the matching tam to the netherpant tights. I added in that eyelash to match the cuffs of the pants. The band is a knitted hem. Usually I start the hem at the bottom, turn with a purl row and then continue the hem till it's time to increase stitches. This time I did the bottom of the band and when the hat was finished, picked up the stitches along the cast on edge and knit up the inside of the tam doing the name with a little two color stranded knitting.

The mittens are next and then her ice skating outfit will be done.

Hether's Tam finished.

This is the finished tam knit with EZ's Tam pattern. I spun the wool, Hether dyed it with Kool Aid! The hem is a wide rolled stocking net. Fabulous!

C'est Fini!

Finally it is finished. It looks good on too, and should be just the right size. I'm hoping CeCe takes a pic of herself wearing it for the blog~!

One of my most favorite and simple tam photos from Elizabeth Zimmermann's Knitting Without Tears.

Cormo tam in progress

This is the tam in progress. I'm making what EZ calls a monster tam. It took the one skein to get this far. There is a hem already sewn down at the bottom edge so now all I have to do is ad a few more inches at 135 sts then start to decrease.
I have spun up another bobbin full...it's ready for the niddy noddy now. I started out with 1/2 lb of roving and I've sent for the rest of it which will equal a whole pound of roving. I'm curious how many Thumbelina bobbinfuls I'll get in total? I love this wool!
