A Hat for the Christmas Basket
If one is lucky, a solitary fantasy can totally transform a million realities.

Slowly but steadily I've been making progress on those two mutually-related goals: The Christmas Basket and Clean Slate by 2008. Here's another WIP turned into an FO.
ShedirPattern: Shedir from Knitty
Yarn: KnitPicks Ambrosia, leftover from Rowena
Needles: US 5 dpns
Notes: Not too hard or fiddly to make, but ever the more annoying because I didn't have a 16" circular needle in this size. How is it that I don't have every needle?
Best Thing About This Project: Stash gone, needles freed. It's a win-win.
Labels: Christmas, Hats, Knitalongs, Stash

Wow, I'm the first to comment...It's lovely. Love the color.
Some patterns, no matter how many times they've been made in the past, deserve to be made again. This is one of them. It looks gorgeous. I hope to make this hat at some point too.
My husband just asked me the same question about needles as I had to buy a 16" US 4. Nice hat!
Very lovely! YAY! Another finished project!
I am finshing a Shedir this week myself that has been on the needles forever. I don't really like the 16" needles and just use two circulars in the correct size like I am knitting socks.
