One last post for the 2021 year, almost at the wire. Might as well let it be for the mutsjes/little hats that round out the year!
Speaking of which, the 2021 mutsjes donated to Innocent smoothies for charity (helping seniors in need) were due by the end of November. These next two batches were the last I donated for the 2021 year:
You can tell these little hats were from socks I made for me, myself and I,
now that I'm remembering to show the matching photo.
These were made from self-striping yarn in our communal stash.
I LOVE how they remind me of babies.
All in all, I ended up with 151 mutsjes donated to charity from 2021,
and because I didn't start until July, that's almost one mutsje per day. YAY!

Now begins the 2022 year in December, with my goal to make 300 mutsjes by the end of next November:
Self-striping yarn from the communal stash.
I tried light, medium and dark brims to mix it up a bit.
More self-striping yarn from the communal stash, which I love.
In this case, I found the green and gold solid-colored yarn, again from the communal stash.
You can't tell but they both have a gold, sparkly thread running through it.
Using the same green and gold yarn as in the previous collage,
I tried to make my own patterns, using white and red yarn to spruce it up.
It felt a bit more festive for this time of the year.
Now I'm back to my own Scheepjes yarn that does weird self-striping patterns.
It's my least favorite yarn but I want to use it up.
Last but not least, here's a loner from a scrap of communal yarn I found intriguing.
I'm glad it yielded only one because those colored flecks made knitting it hard.
Still, it makes for a perfect year-end splash, don't you think!
Speaking of which,
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
