I'm not familiar with loom knitting, JB. I crochet and knit and think your hats are great! I make preemie hats for hospitals to use in the NICU units.
I also dabble in quilting, and have a king sized one I should be working on. It's in pieces right now! I love to read and do mosaics and a bit of stained glass work. I have a window and a lamp in the beginning stages. The lamp will be Tiffany style using seaglass and seashells. I have a greenhouse full of tropical plants, so I sit out there and enjoy the flowers and warmth.
