One Hat to rule them all, One Hat to find them, One Hat to bring them all and in the comfiness bind them



So after working on my ribbed scarf, I decided that I had my purl stitch down, and I wanted to try my hand at making a hat again, and I have succeeded! I started this hat on 03-30-08, and finished it on 04-05-08, 1 week later. I think I made good progress considering I knitted the vast majority of it at work.

I started by casting on 74 stitches of Lambs Pride Bulky, and doing a knit purl ribbed pattern, Which I found here http://kisknit.wordpress.com/2006/08/31/fo-second-chemo-cap-plus-the-pattern/. I never being one to follow a pattern decided to knit a fold seam, or whatever the hell it is called a couple inches into the project, and I think it came out looking nice.

If I were to make this mat again, which I am sure I will I would not put in the fold seam, and I would prolly cast on a couple extra stitches, maybe 76-78 just to make it a little large.

enjoy the pics.
