Hats
The Woolly Wormhead Mystery Knitalong 2014 has started. I started mine as soon as it was out on Saturday morning – didn’t have a lot of knitting time Saturday but it was done by lunch on Sunday. I won’t post a picture, as I know some people like the surprise. If you are interested in seeing the progress so far then follow this link.
I think for a second there, I may have forgotten about the Mystery Hat Knitalong. It’s got a bit colder recently here and I was thinking about my winter wardrobe – so I thought I could knit a warm winter hat. Ahem… so bought yarn, then remembered I was already going to be making one! Oh well, they’re different colours, so I will have two new hats!
The pattern I’ve used is Kernmantle – another Woolly Wormhead pattern. I just takes one 100g skein of yarn for the largest size. I’ve used Malabrigo Merino Worsted in Vaa for this one. It's a beautiful deep bottle green colour which is quite hard to capture in the photograph.
I had a sneak peak at your MKAL hat (I'm not participating and very nosy as well) and adore the yarn you're using! The other hat is looking fantastic as well, it looks so cosy and warm :)
ReplyDeleteYes it has turned rather cold, I'm thinking blankets and scarves myself.
ReplyDeleteLove the hat pattern one day I hope to be able to make such a lush hat myself :)
