A new project for me

At least twelve months ago but maybe it’s two years, I crocheted a red and blue beanie for a (horse) endurance rider. She wore it over her skull cap and it was easy to pick her out in our photos because of the bright colours. She jokingly mentioned to Vince that she now needs a pink beanie. When I checked the latest photos, her horse has a new pink bridle so perhaps she wants to match. So I bought some pink wool today and I’ll make her a pink beanie. It doesn’t take me long to make one and with luck she’ll be at the last ride of the season which is in a week’s time.

Make one for the horse while you're at it.

I could make him one with ears on it. Good idea.

Oh how cute! What shade of pink is it? I think of the whole Barbie craze because of the movie - hot pink seems to be "in" .

@JudyEv When I am nervous or anxious, I crochet.

@LadyDuck I might do puzzles but it's easier to watch a film or TV if you're crocheting.

It gives me something to do in the evenings. I like having something to do with my hands.

I like having something to do. I get fidgety if I have nothing to do with my hands.

I checked that she really wanted one. I thought she might have been joking.

Some hoods for horses have ear pieces either to stop them being bothered with flies or to stop some of the noise in an arena.

I always look for the beanie at rides. Now I'll have to look for a pink one.

@JudyEv My horse's bridle was leather, but her halters were blue or green.

They come in all colours now. Leather is mostly out for endurance and whatever is used now comes in all colours. Rugs are colourful now too.

They only take a couple of evenings to make so it's not a big deal for me. It's nice to be able to do it for her.
