This post is a quick follow up on the post from November 2021 – The Itty-Bitty Hat and Fun Surprises in the Mail. I knitted a colorful hat which was too small for my head.

I ended up giving this hat to my friend Wendy as a gift and it fit her perfectly (she is very petite and has a petite head).
I still had leftover yarn from this hot mess of yarn (which I did roll into a ball of yarn):

So I decided to try making myself a hat with the yarn again, this time one appropriate for the size of my head and my hair. I finished the hat in January and I’ve been enjoying it!


Now it’s time to use the only hat pattern I know, to knit a hat from my partner John (who has been waiting for a hand knitted hat from me for some time…).
How neat…now what colors will John be wearing…and hoping he gets some seasonal wear out of it quickly

That is a fabulous hat! I’ve always thought bright colours are just what you need when the weather is cold and miserable.
