Can I get a YEEE HAWWW

Posted by: chelle on: 13 Feb, 2008

So third times a charm, as the saying goes. I finally have a hat that is not only totally adorable, it fits too. Have I mentioned I love cables? There is a man at the farmer’s market that makes wooden needles, I think I might ask him if he could make a few cable needles for me :)

It is rather difficult to take a picture of one’s head. I need a head :) hmm I wonder if a paper mache one would be strong enough to work as a model?

The Hat!

Some details … Hat was knit on 8mm (11 US) based on the Yarn Harlot’s Unoriginal Hat Yarn 100% wool (I lost the label from Holly’s yarn, however the extra yarn was from my LYS, it is called freedom by Twilley’s of Stamford)

Side View

I am still working on husband’s scarf. I had hoped to finish it before Valentine’s Day but that is not looking promising.

Woo hoo! You are right though the new yarn does not show off the cables nearly as well as the original yarn. I didn’t even realize that they were there until I really looked at the picture.

I’m so glad you were able to get it done! I was feeling really guilty. It look great. Hope it’s super warm.

So why is it a hat and not a toque? Canadians . . .

Well done! I have always wanted to try knitting or crocheting a hat. :)
