as mentioned before (and I'm sure it will not be the last time..)
I am stubborn
and part of my being stubborn had to do with knitting (remember the mittens blogpost?)
well.. instead of mittens I made a hat!
and instead of following instructions
(for I have only made a rectangle.. )
(and no one has taught me anything besides THEE knit when i was in elementary school)
I decided I had enough skills and talents on how to make my own hat
without a pattern or anything to follow
I went out and bought needle things with the thing connecting them..
the kneedles were fat, and hard to stitch with..
and later on I had to switch it to using three needles?
of course I only have my two original needles and then the two fat connecter ones... so.. I used what I had..
so the hat is a little lop sided and.. large and un 'snug'
and so I'd randomly knit here... purl here... maybe purl twice..
k2, p6, k4, .. did I just knit? hmm I don't think so.. k4 more..
drop a stitch here (on purpose) annnd tralaa time has passed
but just when I was nearing the end I somehow dropped ALL of my stitches so.. I just picked up random ones and connected them and dropped them until they were all gone..
so...
thats..
what happened.....
and heeeeeeeerrreee it is!
hmm.. the quality of this photo isn't great.. I'll retake it later.
I think it looks like I have a honey comb on my head
"can we use that as part of a halloween costume??!" was Aryk's response..
did I learn my lesson?
follow directions?
no.
(k now that I look at the hat in the picture it could also look like I am wearing a pear on my head..)
CORRECTION! after I wrote this blog I took out some brown yarn.. made a pompom.. and then 'sowed' yarn with a knitting needle and the brown yarn along the bottom to make it tight! now its actually kinda actually hat like (photo does not do it justice)
