This is the last of my hats that I've had in queue to be posted about for months.
It's a really small hat...really, really small. But I loved the yarns I used for it--I think the variegated yarn is Sugar'n Cream's "Lava Lamp", and the pink that compliments it pretty well is their "Hot Pink".
I also really liked the flower I made, even though I can't remember exactly how I made it! I know I didn't use a tutorial... I think I just started casting on A LOT of stitches, and then knitting 2 together every third stitch after two rows, and probably knitting 2 together every other stitch after that. Something like that. I wanted to make a rosette, but the middle turned out too small--so I stitched it together in a big circle and came up with this flower. :) The middle came out pretty hard-feeling since it's so dense, so I stitched in a few accents in the variegated yarn to make it look button-like.
I tried getting a close up, but this is from my camera phone, so it's not that great:
Now that I'm all done with my "back catalog", I should have a few more hats done soon!
