Cool waters hat

There is nothing like a heat wave to make you pick up your knitting... or something.

Needles: US 8 / 5.0 mm

Yarn: some of Jasra's leftovers stash

Pattern: made up to fit my head

It has been a while since I have had the urge to knit, so I decided to take advantage of it while it lasted. Jasra kindly let me raid her stash of leftovers, and I found a pretty variegated yarn that feels like merino. Eyeballing it, it looked like just enough yarn for a little hat for me, and with my shorter hair that seemed potentially useful, if not in this heat.

It was a little bit of a game of yarn chicken, but I am really pleased with the results. Plus it was nice to revisit with my knitting mojo.
