A Summery Project

When I was turning up the AC to the "arctic" setting so I could wear my new sweater around the house (pattern pending), I realized it was probably time for a more summer-appropriate garment.

So I pulled out a little goodie I got at the wool-fest. (if you can't tell, I got a little goody-happy at the fest-i-val).

It's the Delilah Sun Hat from the Knitting Fairy.

With only one, and not even the entire one, skein of Acero fom Brooks Farm Yarn in dark purple, and a little effort, I have, for you to behold:

A freshly blocking sun hat!

The pattern was delightfully simple and quick. You should most DEFINATELY give it a shot if you like sun-hats. I can't wait to wear mine by the pool!

I only have a tidgen left!

I'm supposed to cram the weed whacker cord in the little tube I made at the edging there, and I think thats all that's going in there, despite my best efforts. After it's done blocking I get to melt it into a final tube and cram the rest in there. Believe me, I won't exclude you from that adventure.

For now I'm off to be sure Aimee stops pulling the pins out of it and hiding them in her bed.
