the hat that nearly killed me...

well not really but it was way more of a challenge that i thought it would be. It's cool yarn but not easy knit. every time i re-did the hat it was a different size even though i had the same stitch count. (very annoying) However... it's finally done. It was done in time for the late season snow storm we had on Friday. Fun thing about the hat, you can wear it inside out and it's has a very different look than right side out. :)
Right side-out

Inside-out

On a fabulous model paired with a matching scarf (which was much easier to make)

Love the hat! Looks great on your model, too. Welcome to the "fun" of "frogging" a project (ripping it out). Well done.

Maybe i should have noted that orders need to be place by June if you want it for the winter... wink, wink.
