Just not for me. It’s a little too small and likes to ride up my head creating a mushroom effect.
Exhibit A: Mushroom head
This is only staying on my head because of the pigtails
Close up
Even though this hat didn’t turn out big enough for me to wear, I still consider it a major success because I dyed the roving, spun up the yarn and knit up the hat. With my own handspun. And it took me less than a year to actually knit with my handspun. Oh, and this pattern? It is FUN! and super easy to memorize. And it took me?3 days to finish this. But there were interruptions, so I figure I could knit it in even less time sans distractions. Like laundry. Damn, that laundry is ALWAYS wanting attention. What is up with that?
Anyway, I think this hat will fit my little niece O perfectly, so I’ll be passing it along to her in the near future. I think she’ll like it.
And I do have some yarn left over. I just need to figure out what to do with it…
Aww, it’s cute! I love the yarn big time! I’m on my fourth project using my handspun, more of the Maine Morning Mitts, and I’m digging using my own stuff.
Wrist warmers with the leftovers?
Oh, and Mt. Washmore waits for no one.
Very cute! I think it turned out lovely.
Cute hat! And that look on your face is PRICELESS!!!!
Congrats!!! What an accomplishment to dye, spin, and knit your own Piggle!! Is your niece a very girly girl like you look in modeling the finished product?! Hope to see a pic of her modeling
Total success! See, I would just forever wear pigtails to keep that sucker on
keeping the hat for myself. Using your own stuff is so much fun! Great job! I can’t wait to see what you turn out next.
Love your hat & you did a super job on it!!! I love the pattern & your homespun looks great!!! Can’t wait til mine looks that good.
The recipient of your hat will a very lucky person.
Is this the hat you emailed me about??? Niece will LOVE it- especially because you made it. It is very puuurrddy….
BTW: hope all is well with girlie parts. Too bad we won’t have another rug rat around…..maybe later………
