Another hat mishap

This one is almost as good as the last one. First off, it was a Christmas gift. Well, you might be aware that it's nearly February. Secondly, i delayed in buying an additional ball of wool until after i started decreasing. I thought i could do it with one...at $18/ball i wish i had. Too late (aka stubborn) to go back i continued with 2 inches in single ribbing rather than the double i'd done so far.
After it all, the hat really didn't fit the recipient well and i'm resigned to keeping it. At least when i'm wearing it i can't see the mistakes as well as if Brett was.
(And i thought ribbing would avoid sizing the concerns of a felted one)

(leftovers from three wool hempjes made for a niece and two nephews)

I was also trying to finish a ribbed hat before the knitting went awol at a family reunion. And i'm still contemplating a wool table runner in tonal reds. (Yes, i do know Christmas has past.)

Full Circle


I think it's about time I gave the wool diaper covers a rest.  This one was started a while ago when I was at an impasse with sewn ones because I felt I couldn't achieve the best fit that way.  So I decided to try knitting one, with ribbing, kitchener stitching and pattern modification.  Now that I've finally finished knitting it, the cover no longer fits him.  And I'm at the point when I'm happy with my sewn pattern again.  Sigh.
