Felted Hat


I decided yesterday to knit this hat. It's knitted from the crown down with 2 strands on size 11 needles, so it goes fast! This was some yarn (Buko, from Plymouth Yarns) that I bought several years ago to make a felted bag. That bag never materialized, so now it's a hat! I love that it's striped - and by using 2 strands from different skeins, the stripes appear rather mottled.

The hat itself doesn't really fit me well, but it's not dry yet, so we'll see! Oh well, with my luck, this cold weather we're having will probably subside before this baby dries!
