Last night I darned in a bunch of yarn ends, took photos, and readied some hats for mailing. There are both knit and crocheted caps. I crocheted with three different hooks, knit two hats with smaller needles (the Felicity hats), and knit the rest of the caps on #10 needles.
You can see the hats in this slideshow:

I have another stack of hats I have to finish darning, photographing, and readying for mailing.
E1 had 91 hats completed as of four days ago, and hopes to have 100 done by the end of her vacation. Her friend, P, hopes to have 100 done within a few weeks.
18 (sent from DB) + 100 (by E1) + 100 (by P) + 11 (shown above) + ??? (in stack to be finished) = ????
Maybe we need 50 or 60 more???? Not sure. I guess I should count how many I have in the stack to be finished.
Presently working on another pink Sheep-ish crocheted cap. This one is being made with a Knitter's Pride aluminum crochet hook, size J. I wanted to compare a J Clover Amour hook with a Knitter's Pride hook as soon as possible so that the conditions of use were as similar as possible. That is, my hands are either inflamed or not, weather is about the same, yarn is the same, etc. The Amour hook is very similar to the Knitter's Pride hook in style and weight. So far I'm preferring the Knitter's Pride hook as the handle doesn't seem to make my hand as sweaty as the Amour hook does.
