Two beanies

I've now finished all the knitting chapters in Golden Hands book 1!   Winter has really hit, and I am in such a knitting mood, so I've gone onto the Basic Wardrobe chapters.  These chapters contain patterns for wardrobe items, and I gather that they are included for those people who are experienced knitters and crocheters. (Not sure is "crocheters" is a word!).
