It's all over but the decreases - hoping to finish this hat today so V and I can gift it tomorrow!
I'm knitting Anne Hanson's Fartlek hat (Rav link) in my own yarn, Mist on Coquina DK.
I love the yarn (soft and plush), I love the color (the little bits of darker blue just make it for me), I love this project (quick, easy, & satisfying).
Many thanks to Sharon for suggesting the pattern to me.
Next up, I'll be back to knitting on the cardi I'm making for V and hopefully a cardi for Baby H too.














Pretty!

This is super nice! What a great gift for some lucky person!
If you need another hat, maybe even for a man, is a design by Jared Flood. His'Fortnight' beanie is easy and has lots of texture. Just finished one for Rob and he loves it. Uses a heavier yarn, so it's fast. Last minute gift?
