I needed a smaller project to temporarily take me away from the lace project I am currently working on. You know how those can be. One tends to develop a love, hate relationship with lace projects. The love comes when you choose the wonderful yarn and the gorgeous pattern, that you are certain will look magnificent. The hate comes when you are about half finished and if you do one more yarn over, and SSK you are going to stab the knitting needle in your eye. That brings us to the smaller project.
I made this hat from yarn dyed by http://stonebarnfibers.com/. It was the first time I had used yarn from them and it was very nice. Very soft and great color saturation. I didn't use a pattern just sort of made it up as I went. Came out good. She thinks it did. The hat is certainly off season for the sundress, but she didn't seem to care.
Oh to be young and not care.
