Space Coloring Page

space coloring page

Have you been following the news about Artemis I? So far the launch date has been pushed back twice, and now they’re planning for a September 23 launch. Fingers crossed that all goes well on the next attempt.

As a young girl growing up in Southeast Texas, I vividly remember our school field trip to Johnson Space Center in Houston. That was the year of Apollo 13’s flight, and the entire nation was gripped with space fever. When launches were televised during the day, portable televisions were rolled into classrooms so we could watch. Every child in the country wanted to be an astronaut! Although I didn’t make it to NASA as a career, a few classmates eventually worked at Johnson Space Center. Still, my fascination with space continues.

Fall Hat Month

Quail Ski Hat Crochet Pattern

According to the weatherman, it’s still summer, but the beginning of September has us anxiously awaiting the first day of fall. Chunky hats, football season, pumpkin spice everything, and of course, Halloween!

While living in West Texas a few years ago, I would watch a pair of scaled quail waddle down the street in the mornings. Often there were more quail, but they always walked in pairs. Their quiet beauty was the inspiration for the colors of this easy crochet hat pattern.

Materials needed:
Lion Hometown USA Super Bulky Yarn
1 skein Bar Harbor Blizzard (color A)
½ skein Anchorage Ice (color B)
Size K and M crochet hooks
Yarn needle
Fur pompom

Gauge: 5 rows = 2”, 6 sts = 2”

Hat measures approximately 22” circumference and 8 1/2” height

Directions:

BRIM:

Row 1: With color A and size K hook, ch 9, sc in 2nd ch from and each of the next 7 ch (8 sc).

Row 2: Working in back loops only, ch 1, turn, sc in each st.

Repeat Row 2 until brim measures approximately 22” (adult female size). Add or remove rows as necessary for correct fit. Do not fasten off.

With right sides together, sew first and last rows together.

HAT:

Rnd 1: With right sides together and size M hook, work 1 sc in each row end. Join with sl st in first sc. (For extra length, add 1-2 rows of sc here.)

Rnd 2: Ch 1, *sc in next 4 sts with color A, sc in next st with color B,* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 3: Ch 1, *sc in next st with color A, sc in next st with color B, sc in next st with color A* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 4: Ch 1, *sc in next st with color B, sc in next st with color A,* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 5: Ch 1, *sc in next st with color A, sc in next st with color B,* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 6: Ch 1, *sc in next 2 sts with color B, sc in next 2 sts with color A,* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 7: Ch 1, *sc in next 2 sts with color A, sc in next 2 sts with color B,* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 8: (Begin decreasing) Ch 1, *sc next 2 sts together with color B, sc in next st with color A, sc in next 2 sts with color B, sc in next st with color A* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 9: Ch 1, *sc next 2 sts together with color B, sc in next 2 sts with color B, sc in next st with color A* repeat around. Join with sl st. Fasten off color A.

Rnd 10: Ch 1, working only with color B for the remainder of the hat, *sc in next 3 sts, dec over next 2 sts,* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 11: Ch 1, *sc in next 3 sts, dec over next 2 sts,* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 12: Ch 1, *sc in next 2 sts, dec over next 2 sts,* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 13: Ch 1, *sc in next st, dec over next 2 sts,* repeat around. Join with sl st.

Rnd 14: Ch 1, dec around. Join with sl st. Fasten off with 6” length. Use yarn needle to thread this length through remaining sts and pull tight. Weave in all ends.

Sew (or clip) fur pompom to top of hat.
