My First Hat

[Stacy]

Hi Everyone!

I am so excited because I finished my first felted hat. :happydance: This is my first project, besides several scarves and a dozen dish cloths. :lol:

I took a class last Tuesday to learn how to make a felted hat, it was a beginner class, but she said that since I already made a dish cloth I should try this hat. After class I finished my ‘homework’ and thought I can do the next step. I then had to change to dpn. I was going to stop there and wait until Tuesday, NOPE! I continued. The hat was completely knitted by Friday. I was really nervous about washing it, I finally did that Sunday morning. If I do say so myself it turned out great! I LOVE IT!!!.

It is black with a brim that I rolled. There is a blue stripe where the brim meets the hat part. I wish our digital camera worked so I could show all of you a picture.

I brought the hat to school today, and two people have asked me to make one for them!! This is hard to believe since I have only been knitting for a month and a half!

Thanks for letting me brag a little. I am just so excited, and I thought if anyone would understand it would be all of you.
