A couple of weeks ago my friend Grant showed up to the pub wearing SHOCK a commercially knit hat. It was fine, but it had a seam on the top. Also, it offends me that anyone I'm close to would be wearing a commercial hat. So, I knit a hat (out of leftovers from Leon's winter set., using this broken rib pattern.
When I gave it to him he seemed very pleased. I didn't tell him that it was a one-day-wonder. i cast on on the tram on the way to my lift to Bendigo, knitted on the ride up, knitted through the Women of Wool lunch, knitted in the car back, knitted at my parents place at dinner and finished up before bed time.
Look at that decrease! I love hat crowns, they always look so interesting to me.
I tried to get good pictures, but we were at the pub and things were going on, and these will just have to do. I do enjoy showing my love through my craft.
