A Knitty and Crochety Update

Crochety... Is that even a word? In my blog, why not? I finally have gotten around to taking photos of the Addison Hat that my friend Karen designed: Addison Hat Of course, I am a knitter with no patience what so ever. I just jumped into the project without even doing a gauge swatch. I used regular worsted acrylic yarn and a tweed yarn for this hat. My lesson learned or you would think by now I would learn to gauge swatch and use the same type of yarn throughout the whole project. So my hat kinda came out huge: IMG_9112Isn't that photo kinda scary? It is like I am getting ready to rob a bank or something. (The Addison Hat Bandit!) My dear neighbor,whom by the way is a knitter too, said "Well you can always use it as a project bag to hold your yarn". o_0 Genius Idea! So... Now I give you....
