Liddsville revisited!

fuzzy purple hatWell, as I said, I promised my daughter her own little purple fuzzy hat, and here it is.

This was the same pattern, adhered to more closely. The difference here is that instead of a strand of sport-weight wool with the purple, I used a strand of sport-weight cotton, Mission Falls 1824. It was a perfect color match for the purple, so I got lucky. I think the cotton might make the hat a little heavier than a really thin wool (lighter than sport-weight) would have, but the cotton does have pretty good loft and my daughter doesn’t seem to mind. She likes it because it looks a little like the hat the title character in this book wears.

Hopefully after I take care of more wedding work tonight (love is in the air this month, I’ll tell ya!) I’ll be able to start on the other projects that’ve been stacking up.
