• EZ's Maltese Fisherman's hat, also in bulky yarn or doubled worsted. (Christi's tip: this hat is sized for adults, but makes a great baby hat if you work the pattern exactly as given, but scale down the needles to about a US 6 or 7 and use a single strand of worsted yarn.)

For knitters who like to make use of all their scraps and bits of yarn, here is a project Sue. B found on Ravelry , but you can access the free pattern directly from the original source. (there's a crocheted version, too)

Stitch Yourself gives you the instructions to make a tiny doll (Sue's is about 7" tall)--and then it's up to your imagination as to how to outfit the little person. Sue created a basic knitted wardrobe and some miniature accessories, too.

Another great scrap project is the "Bevy of Bangles"  The pattern appears in Gifted: lovely little things to knit + crochetby Mags Kandis. Kathleen used miscellaneous worsted wools and leftover self-patterning sock yarns for these chunky felted and wrapped bracelets.
