H2O Hat
14 February 2004 – 2:17 pm
My H2O hat from ChicKnits. I used #17 needles on Lion Brand’s Wool-Ease Thick and Quick. Color is charcoal because at the time I didn’t see any other color I liked. I love this hat. It fits me and it was so easy to make. I took me more than 2 hours, but I’m a beginner and I kept stopping to cook and clean up the kitchen. I made my hubby chocolate chip cookies for Valentine’s Day. :)
On this hat I used a long-tail cast on. If you read any of my earlier posts, I mentioned that my first row was sloppy and loose. After searching for help, I came across the forums at About.com, I was able to get some help and they suggested it might be my cast on. So I tried the long-tail and it worked. My first row blends into the rest of the hat. No more sloppy, ugly first row. :D I have a feeling I will be making one of these again.
