Years Knitting: I learned when I was probably 8 (20 years ago), but have just recently picked it up again last fall.
Who the hat will be given to (you may give it to yourself): Since I just moved to Arizona from Maine, I’ll probably make it for one of my friends there since I don’t have much need for one anymore.

I’ve been knitting since my grandmother came to america and all i could do were cast ons. 6 years ago, my friends and I learned how to knit during our free period in high school and from that, the entire school went knitting crazy! (i went to a small, all-girls school) I really wanted to knit a hat for my pen pal in portugal! I don’t know how cold it gets there but I planned on knitting him a scarf but a matching hat wouldn’t hurt 🙂

I’ve only been knitting for a year i also know how to crochet but i taught myself how to knit and crochet reading books.
I would probably make the hat for myself since im moving in the dorms at my college in two months and its freezing where my college is, so you can never have to many hats!

I’ve been knitting off and on for about four years now but I love to knit and even though I’m not the best knitter, I really hope this hat comes out well.
I would make this hat for my friend who loves wearing knitted hats. She has been going through some hard times after her mother was diagnosed breast cancer so I’m really hoping this hat makes her smile just a little

My name is Kristen and I have been knitting for just about a month now. I’d love to knit this beret for my sister-in-law. She is obsessed with purple and just asked me to knit her a beret! Could it be a sign? 🙂

I have been knitting for 4 years but the first three were slow due to a busy schedule, so I still have a lot to learn. I am trying to make my gifts this year also and have a lot of spare time. So, I thought your beret would be perfect for my neice. Thank you

Years knitting: 6, since Hurricane Katrina hit when I was in middle school and I had no power.
I would give the hat to my younger sister. She and I may not have the best relationship, her being 6 years younger than me, but I do love her so very much.

I would make this hat for my little sister. She move to NY (from CA). With This hat i can send her a little bit of CA warmpth during those extra cold NY winters.

I have been knitting for only a year so I am a newbie. I’m working my way up. My sister is a crocheter and I think I would give it to her when I accomplish it.

I leaned to crochet from one grandmother and I learned to knit from the other grandmother. I am so thankful that I had the opportunity to learn such a rewarding hobby while I was young. I made my husband a knitted scarf with a chain/braid down the center. It was so rewarding even though I had to pull it out many times because I made mistakes.
I would love to knit a hat for my son next.
