Pointy Elf hats

I have another post about all the goings on lately, mostly photos.  We have been busy and invited all around to go and do and for now, all are well and able.  I do have plenty of knitting projects lined up though and this is one.  Kind of a primer for making some for my elfs for Christmas. These were made as gifts to friends for their birthdays, a brother and sister pair.  It is Joelle Holverson's Pointy Elf Hat.  See notes on Ravelry here and here.  The pattern does not pan out as it is written or maybe as I interpret it but I made it work.  Reminds me of Elsa Beskow's Forest Friends book.  I love these sweet elf hats and know that one day, they won't! 

Hope your days are slowed with a passion or handicraft that you love to do, in spite of schoolwork, laundry, oh, and what's for supper?  Yeah, I plan all that just so I can make sure I get time to knit.
