Stunning, isn’t it?! The pattern was from here, and knitted with bargainously cheap Hayfield Bonus Toytime DK. It’s 100% acrylic but not awful to knit with, and the colours are perfect. You just can’t get egg yolk yellow or bacon fat beige in Rowan or Debbie Bliss yarns! I changed the pattern slightly, so I could knit the hat in the round and avoid as much sewing up as possible. Also added a sausage to the hat instead of the recommended peas because… well, sausages are just funnier.
Still waiting for buttons for the Zoe Mellor baby cardigan, but hope to have it finished and blogged before the end of the week. For a small, insignificant looking piece of knitwear, it has become the bane of my life.
