Berrrrrrrrrret!

I get a lot of satisfaction over finishing these small projects with soft, squashy yarn. I made a Chunky Slouch Cap for Lauren for her bday. I used Rowan Big Wool with size 17 double pointed needles and although some women may disagree, I'm going to tell you, it IS the size that matters. And baby, this wool is BIG.

Squashinessssss

I got a super chunky, really fun hat. Although, if I did make it again, I'd do half as much ribbing. Also, I really hate size 17 dpns. They're big, hard to manage and stitches constantly fall off of them if I'm not paying attention.

Next time, less ribbing, more lace
