I've been reading your blog for a while and haven't commented, but something about this super cute hat inspired me to let you know how much I enjoy seeing your many creations.

Love it.

Your hat looks great in that yarn. I just discovered your blog through Mason Dixon & I'm glad I stopped by. I'm trying out that twitter widget on my terribly updated blog.(maybe it will help) Thanks for the idea! Will be back again - Lisa

A question -
Did you change the pattern in any way? I'm wondering, because the picture on the pattern makes the hat looks huge. Your's is terribly cute, though.

Liz, I didn't change anything in the pattern. I cast on the same number of stitches and knit 6 inches before starting the decreases. The yarn, however, may be thicker than the yarn she used for her hat.

UPDATE:
I'm working on a second one in a more standard worsted weight yarn and it is coming out slouchier like the one in the pattern pic.

That's a really cute hat, and it looks like it was a pretty fast knit too! A double win!
