PATCHWORK


When I started making this hat I wasn't sure if I would have enough yarn to finish the project as I originally envisioned.....and I didn't.  But I like the finished hat just the way it is.  It's kind of patchwork-y.  The bottom tweedy section is made by knitting four thinner yarns together to make one thicker yarn.  The colors are off white, light grey, medium grey and a muted aqua.  I really like this combination of colors.  Then I ran out of yarn.  I did have a brighter turquoise colored yarn that I decided to use and I came up with a two tone hat that I think looks quite nice.  It is a very warm hat made with several layers of yarn and it feels soft to the touch.  Good going!!
