From Susan — A Hat of a Different Color

Filed under: Updates — lv2knit @ 12:03 pm

I love my Slouchy Five-Stripe Hat — so much so that I decided to knit up a spring version!  I got the yarn at a BeWoolen “Lock In.”  These popular events literally fill up in minutes!  They run for 4-5 hours and include a meal, prize drawings, and show & tell.  Last time I received two skeins of String Yarns Amalfi in Mulberry and Sea Pink.  My first thought?  A Slouchy Five -Stripe in two colors instead of five.

Here is the original hat:

It is BUTTER soft, which you cannot tell from the picture.  Here is the spring-time version:

Again, butter soft.  I had enough yarn left over to make a pair of mitts.  I Frankensteined my Drizzle Mitts cuff to a Baby Fan mitt:

Ready in time for the transition to spring!!

PS — Thanks for favoriting Pagan Sky!  You put me WAY over!!!
