    Hi! I'm Traci. I'm a Registered Nurse who loves quilting, knitting, cross stitch, and the great outdoors. In my pre-scrubs life, I owned Real Photography, and you can still see my old wedding and portrait photography site here .

    I've created a map that shows links to our camping/hiking/general family fun review posts that you can find here. It's pretty much the coolest thing on this site. Thanks, Google!

    I great big puffy heart *love* comments, so please let me know you visited! I try to always reply!

Lotus Flower Hat | Malabrigo Rasta Yarn

Wednesday, March 31, 2021 Posted in knitting

I fell in love with this hat on Instagram and tracked down the exact yarn to make a replica, even though it meant paying international shipping!

Pattern: Lotus Flower Beanie

Yarn: Malabrigo Rasta in Diana and Whole Wheat

Pattern Review: The pattern is easy to follow and a blast to knit up–this is a fast project with this super chunky yarn!
