Thing a Day 3-6: Mushroom Hat in Progress!

5424507327_2bde831265

I've begun working on the 2nd version of a slouchy hat using the "Mushroom Hat" pattern by the Purl Bee.  http://www.purlbee.com/mushroom-hat/

The first version came out alright but it's a bit too wide so it keeps falling over my eyes and well, a bit *too* slouchy.   This version has 16 less cast-on stitches and it's made of a lovely, handspun alpaca yarn.  :D

Slouchy hats are bigger than a standard beanie so it's like knitting 1.5 hats..  so it seems like its construction will make up several "things" this month.

I like to sketch doodles, play with yarn and dabble with jewelry.
