I LOVE this hat! It is cute, but Tattoo Boyfriend could pull it off in a little more manly color!
Butterfly says, "There is a face on the other side of this head!"
My head isn't lopsided - I swear. Neither is the hat...but it sure looks like it here!!!
Project Details:
Pattern: Koolhaas - Interweave Knits Holiday 2007 Issue
Yarn: Cascade 220 The Heathers - Amethyst Heather (yes, I used the left overs from my Duster and I still have some left)
Needles: US Size 6 Denise and US Size 8 Knitpicks Options Nickle plated (I did not use the dpns instead I magic looped the decrease portion).
Size: Womens (if I had to do it again I would shorten the ribbing just a bit to better bit my head)
Notes: This was an easy, fast knit once I relearned how to read. Seriously. I don't mean I didn't read the chart correctly - that was fine. Well, then there is the whole read the key. Yeah. I didn't do that apparently and got a couple rows in- realized I was stupid - and ripped back and started over. Twice.
Mods: Well, it really isn't a mod, but I didn't use a cable needle, I cabled without one which made it faster, I think. This is why I used the Options needles - they are pointy enough to make this easy!
And here we have our zombie fairie picture.

Really nice hat! And the zombie face is funny!
I thought that hat looked great on you! I still can't get over how fast you did it!
whatever do you mean neither your head or the hat isn't loopsided? It's got to be one or the other! ;) Love, love, love the hat. The color is perfect on you!
That was fast and it looks great! Hehe love that last picture! You still have some yarn left! Wow, that was miracle skein or the neverending one LOL!
That hat is festive! I love the color!
I love the hat! It's in my list of things to knit, but in manly colors for my husband.
I saw this hat online and decided to give it a go, although I didn't have a pattern. I love it and there will be many more coming off the needles by me. It's a joy to knit!
I love it!!!! I love the Kool Ass Hat!! I want one! I went ALL OVER Rhinebeck trying to find yak yarn!!!! No luck! :(
