Which is a pity, since this hat that I knit is pretty much giant-sized. I think I must not have been paying attention when I made it. I was hanging out with a friend and we were laughing at her cat and enjoying the day. Maybe that’s why I managed to cast on an exra 20 stitches without noticing. Anyway, this hat is pretty cool, despite the fact that it could cover the national debt. I was going to give it to my older nephew, whose head is rather…large, but he’s a little sensitive about his massive cabeza, so I’ll figure out something else to do with it.

It looks okay from this angle

And then you see how much there is to this hat

Although this hat was far too large for me, I learned a couple of nifty lessons whilst making it. 1) I learned how to do an i-cord. As usual, I found a youtube tutorial that explained things to me. 2) I learned a cool way to change colors. It’s called the overcast method, and I think goodness that I found it!
