So imagine how dumb I felt when I went to attach the earflaps and realized that I knit the wrong sized hat... I knit a kid's size rather than adult. Oops. So I started knitting again... and working to knit up a whole new hat.
In a previous post I super excitedly mentioned that I am swapping with Mereware. She's getting a monster face hat and I'm getting some of her robot pottery! I was so excited that I started knitting the hat as soon as she agreed to trade! These hats are not a quick knit. First I have to knit the hat to the brim, then I have to knit both earflaps separately, then attach the earflaps, then knit and attach the horns, then sew in the lining, teeth and sew on the buttons... in other words, time consuming work! So imagine how dumb I felt when I went to attach the earflaps and realized that I knit the wrong sized hat... I knit a kid's size rather than adult. Oops. So I started knitting again... and working to knit up a whole new hat. The above picture is the smaller sized hat. It's a bit tight on my head but still looks cute... but I'm not about to give someone a hat that doesn't fit because that would just be stupid. Below is the second hat, the hat for Mereware! The first hat I'll probably put up on etsy next week. I need to list those yetis too [four more yetis are about to be born!] I'll let you know as soon as that all happens. For now, if you'd like your own custom hat order one HERE!
