Hat is complete.

[jwgh]

It appears to be way too big for a little kid, so I'm not sure what to do with it. Maybe I will bring it to Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow and consult my sister and brother-in-law.

(sanspoof, this is some of the yarn you gave me.)

I used this pattern. Er, I just now noticed that there's a worsted weight version of the pattern. Whoops, that would have been good to notice sooner! Actually, it looks like that would knit up really quick, so maybe I will use the rest of the yellow yarn to make one in that size -- I think I might have enough.

I suggest making a Jane hat....

It is so pointy!
I definitely like the shape, but how does one get one's head not to deform it? Maybe I should make a huge one and felt it.

That would probably work. (It's not an option here because I'm using cotton.) A smaller one might also be sturdier -- I'm a fair way through a littler one and maybe I will finish it in time to try it on my niece later today. I will report back!

Very cool.

Maybe that's what I'll do!
