FO Friday: Resu Hat

This was a test knit for Cheryl Chow of her new hat pattern and I’m really pleased with the final result!

As with most lace, the hat was a bit crinkly immediately after coming off the needles but a good block took care of that problem and the lacy texture is now being shown to it’s best ability.

I did have to supplement my original yarn choice and chose this yellow linen/hemp blend and I don’t think it detracts from the end result at all, I really like them together!

What are you working on?  Have you finished anything lately?

WIP Wednesday: Another Hat

The orange cardi is still on hold this week, all I have left to do is the sleeves but instead I volunteered to test knit a hat pattern for Cheryl Chow!

I’ve mentioned before that I like to have smaller projects on-the-go with my larger projects, yes? This is one of those.

I love the delicate, lacy detail – it’s unique and interesting to knit.

I’m worried now that I’ll run out of yarn though before the finish line!  Fingers crossed that I squeak by with a yard or two left!

What are you working on this week?
