Hat Trick

Remember my Irish Hiking Headband? Well... I never wore it... It wasn't quit big enough to cover my ears the way I wanted it to. So I thought about and thought about and finally just turned the damned thing into a hat. It's cute. It took an afternoon and it fits perfectly!

ETA: Whoa, this project fits with this month's color for Project Spectrum. Go me!

My ears are itchy.

I finished my Irish Hiking headband this morning. It turned out very well. It didn't knit up quite as quickly as I thought it would but that's alright. (I used size 6US and did 15 repeats.)

I have enough of the yarn left to make something else, so another pair of Fetching might be in order. I've been wearing my orange ones a lot and need another pair that are slightly smaller. I have tiny hands and they're just a little large for me.

ETA: Yarn Info!!!! I found one with a band. It's Phentex Galaxie in Orient. 30% Wool 30% Acrylic 29% Viscose 11% Polyester. It's from the stash (aka "vintage"), something that Oma gave me a while ago. I have about 3 or 4 balls left.
