Time for some fun! For this game, simply post the next letter in the alphabet, and a knitted item that begins with that letter. I will start this game with the letter "A", and then you can reply with the following letter and knitted item.
"A" is for ascot, which is like a scarf.
next letter: B!

O is for onesie!
I haven't seen any knitted adult ones, but baby ones (under different names) are sweet. As an adult, I wouldn't be inclined to wear one of any description. But maybe if the house got cold enough . . .
