A hat, and another hat.

Try as I might have, there was no way I was going to finish my hat the other night. Last night was gaming night, and I barely finished in the 5.5 hour span. But, it's done!



...Eh. I think it would've looked better with the ribbon (as written in the pattern), just not on my head, as I've mentioned. I think part of it is that the yarn I used was stiffer than what the pattern called for. And it's cotton, not wool, so I'm not sure how blocking would work. (And yes, I'm aware there are some stretched stitches... that always happens when I knit in the round... I'll be fixing those.)

But, now that my size 3 needles are freed up, it's new project time! I'm going to start with the maze hat, since I just need the size 3's for casting on, then I'll move on to the Knucks I've been eyeing since I first contemplated teaching myself to knit. Yay!

In other news, the picture doesn't do it justice. I want to make it myself. I also want to make an awesome hat I saw yesterday: an earflap hat with really long earflaps. I can't even describe how cool it was.

I really need a sketchbook, so I can work out some of my ideas.
