Still Another Hat.

One of the nice thing about the Dulaan Project, or any other charitable knitting project, is that you can try out new patterns, methods and stitches. With that in mind, I created the "Blue Hat". I like the bottom few inches, but the plain knitting is dull, and I'm ashamed to say, not well executed. I'm hoping the the recipient will appreciate the hat and overlook the flaws.

I have already started another hat. The new one is knit with two strands of yarn, blue from the "Blue Hat" and red from the "ZigZag Hat". So far, so good.

It is getting cold enough in Chicago to actually think of wearing a hat.

The good aspect of the 7 day weather forecast is that it should be cold enough on Thanksgiving to use the fire escape as an auxillary refrigerator. Sometimes you have to dig deep to find a bright side.
