Jumper back

I pulled the jumper back ...back to the vast colour change, and picked up stitches. Then re worked .
It looks a lot better now. I feel happy about finishing the jumper off. I would have re-knitted the entire back if necessary. The someone special who is getting this jumper is VERY special to me

Wrong size...then wrong size again!

I have been knitting ...or trying to knit, an earflap hat for Oliver. I thought I had used the pattern I used earlier this year, but, after two attempts, it is obvious I didn't use the pattern I thought I did. I do remember writing down somewhere what I had done, but can I find it?

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The first attempt came out too small, so I have finished it off for a work colleague's son, think he's 3 in January. The second mistake one...I think I will pull back...as it is too long and still too small, excellent if your head is the same shape as a police helmet...lol.

The hat should look like the picture....but as I have said, one is too small, and one too long.

I'll try again an see if I can get it right a third time. The reason I am knitting Oliver another hat is because he has misplaced the black one in the picture above, and wants a hat to keep his head warm. My friend would like me to make him a hat as well, so I will try to sort out this week, and the spiral scarf can go on the backburner for a few days.
