Fake But Fun
-Henry David Thoreau
This hat is the second most fun project I've knit in a while (see Sunday for the most fun one).
Fake Isle Hat
Pattern: from Magknits - go knit this pattern!
Yarn: Noro Silk Garden in a random single skein and an oddball of a worsted weight brown yarn, the identity of which is lost to the vagaries of time
Needles: US 7 Addi turbos
Notes: I knit the small size as written and had plenty of leftovers of both the whole skin of silk garden and the partial skein of that random brown yarn. For my next one - and there will be a next one - the knitting needs fewer stitches, smaller needles, or both. Otherwise, it's perfect.
Best Thing About This Project: I finished listening to HP7 while knitting it. I knew Snape wasn't evil!

It looks great! I need to add this to my queue...
Beautiful hat! That pattern has been in my queue for a loooong time, I must get it on my needles!
If fake can be so fun and perfect, why be real?! Good job, it looks great!
Cute! The colors are great. :)
The combination is so effective, it's a lovely hat
That hat is still on my to-do-list. Oh, and don't tell me about Snape. He sure knows how to hide it, if you ask me. I'm only on book 4.
Love it! I've always wanted to make one for myself.
That's beautiful. I need to try that pattern one of these days.
