Sorry for the lack of updates on the Knittens page. There hasn't been many new knittens and no one has sent in any of the missing pictures. I guess no one likes wearing their toque during the summer except Daryl.

If you have recieved one of the knittens or see someone you suspect of wearing a knitten - please take a picture of them and email it to me. Then I will add it to collection.

If you would like me to create a specail knitten for you - just let me know. Always looking for things to keep my hands busy.

  Out for delivery.

44. The Woman

Based on The Man, also inspired by Eugene Levy.

Mar 10-06

  Out for delivery.

43. The Man

Although it would appear my knitting is better, my photo taking is worse. This hat was sent much too big, in a different pattern. It returned, was disassembled and turned into The Man. Inspired by Eugene Levy, in that natural wool, earflap genre.

Mar 4-06

  Out for delivery.

42. With Excitement

Also in the real wool earflap genre - a hat with real exclamation.

Dec 24-05

  Available for rent.
Please send photo.

41. The Question Mark

In the Sheep's yarn genre, but with hint of blue mystery. Loose fitting real wool earflap cap.

Dec 20-05

Please send photo. Drl Lamonty received this hat, I put it on his head when he was passed out. He had no clue.
I have learned that I do not knit in any internationally recognized pattern. Or as some may say "incorrectly", as of this day I have corrected style to a standardized international format. This means relearning "correctly" everything I have done so far. These changes are due to a fine levied upon me by the International Knitting Association. I should have just kept smoking instead of knitting. And a little bit of experimentation in this time period, that resulted in a couple of projects being killed.

40. Operation Dumbo Stripes

Grey cap with alternating front to back red and white stripes. Very, very large earflaps, that almost come together in the back.

Dec 7-05

Please send photo. Knit by request for one of the Grahlman boys, it needed to be made big enough to fit over his hockey helmet that special doctors now require him to wear 24/7.

39. Afro Cap

Semi ribbed, brown, very soft cap. That turned out a little large and a stretchy. The hat reminds me of a rastafarian cap, and would work well to hold in your dreadlocks or afro.

Oct 12-05

Mr.Carr has both a large head and tends to have large hair. This hat fit both needs.

38. RibStrip

Blue ribbed cap, neck warmer and red stripe. In a series of quick caps the afro cap and RibStrip were done to get me over the complicated hump of The Paddler (the most complicated hat to date).

Oct 8-05

Please send photo on delivery. One of the hats available for sale at CliftonCunningham.com

37. The Paddler

Blue knit cap with selection of alternating red and yellow, canoe and kayak paddles. Also very large, pippi long stocking tassles. The most complicated project so far.

Oct 4-05

Even though he's semi retired from the sport, the paddler hat was designed for outdoors enthusiast Graham Harada.

36. The Top Hat

A nice soft top hat style knit cap with a large brim and flat top.

July 30-05

Welcome to Vancouver Vicky, here is a hat that will keep you warm on those cold 11' days. But she is still ashamed to show her face on the website and Graham won't let them turn on the heat in their apartment.
