As the test knit for my Havthorn sweater is on going, I made these 2 dolls, they were a request from a family member and it took me some time to figure out how to make them, that is why they are 2 different sizes. The bigger one is approx. 33 cm and the smaller one is about 28 cm.

Oak Of Life
I just finished the Oak Of Life shawl by @me.and.my.yarn free pattern on her website.
I have been home with influenza and I just had to feel like I was getting something done. So happy with the result, my second time making a shawl.
The shawl is not washed nor have I done the blocking, yet… but it looks great!!!
For the project I used:
Hobbii Metallico Rosaline (05) using 4 skeins of the main color.
Hobbii Metallico Rose Gold (18) using 1.5 skeins of the second color.
I am a tight crocheter (amigurumi damage). I made the puff sts with 4 yo not 3 yo, as the designer shows in the video tutorial (but I did do 3 yo on the first, edge puff sts).
Christmas Elf Hat
I made these for my boys (not using a pattern) and they were very happy.
Using up almost 1 skein of Scheepjes Colour Crafter in the Red & in the Green.
Also using, for both hats, one skein Scheepjes Panda for the brim and pom poms, and using approximately 90-100 meters of the white Scheepjes Colour Crafter along with the Scheepjes Panda.
This is how I made the hats:
Using 5,5 mm hook and Scheepjes Colour Crafter using the Camel stitch (Half Double Crochet in the 3rd loop, stitch).

crochet 10 rows hdc in third loop (76) <- size for my 14 year old and my (big headed) 9 year old.
Try the hat on as you crochet and just keep adding stitches to find the size needed.
Depending on the size, the 8 rows and 10 rows are part of the last parts of the hat, to fit the head and not be to snug.
Brim:
Using 5,5 mm hook and 2 threads, white color, Scheepjes Panda & Scheepjes Colour Crafter.
Join the yarn around the back post of a stitch and chain 8.
Work the brim in the opposite direction from previous work.
Sc in the 2nd ch from the hook and sc in the next 6. (7)
- Sl st around the back post of the next 2 stitches on the hat and turn. Do not work into the sl sts.
- Sc in the BLO, across (7). Ch 1 and turn.
- Sc back down (7).
Repeat from 1-3 until the brim is complete, turn the hat inside out and slip stitch through both sts to close the gap.
Fasten off and weave in ends.
Pom poms:
Using 2 threads, white color, Scheepjes Panda & Scheepjes Colour Crafter to make the pom poms.

My youngest son drew this one. I then went to work to crochet this figure for him as I wrote the pattern down, together we made sure it looked the way he wanted and now we have this cute unique stuffed teddy.
