Hermione Hat

Hermione Hat

Thoughts: At first I thought I looked ridiculous in the hat. I'm not usually a fan of bobbles, but these bobbles really seemed to add to the hat. This is a pattern made to be a fan knit project, for Harry Potter, but I just really liked the design, and opted for a purple-y hue rather than the rich red it was in the movie. Nicely written pattern, and I now love the hat.

I'm also working on two other projects. I am taking that class I talked about, although its usefullness sort of ran out, because now I know how to Fair Isle! I've been working on my anemoi mittens slowly. Here's my progress:

I started working on Wicked, but I couldn't see a thing. I'm going to have to buy new yarn (OH NOZ!) and use the Berroco Ultra Alpaca for something else.

So instead of Wicked, I stared knitting Blithe. The instructions kind of baffle me sometimes with how they're written. I'll muddle through somehow.
