Purple Hat

Purple Hat

I haven't knit in quite awhile but I've starting thinking about winter hats already. I LOVE hats. I made this hat in Spring and it is a pretty good second attempt at hat knitting... I've learned that I would like to make a fold up brim next time to help keep the wind from blowing through.  Also, things stretch out some after knit so I would make it a little smaller next time too.

  1. I've been thinking about getting back into knitting, too, and hats are high on the list! I found my way here via your flickr photo of the fantastic bag you made with the Mischievous Gnome Messenger pattern -- I've known about the pattern since it was released and always told myself I could live a happy life without it, but now I'm not so sure! All your projects look great!

  2. It's getting colder so it's a great time to make some hats =)

    The bag isn't too hard to make, it just takes a little time. My Sister-in-law still uses it so it holds up well. I can't wait to see yours if you decide to make it!
