Bounce

I absolutely love and adore this hat. It was a super easy knit once I got used to knitting into the bottom row. It really could be whipped up in just a few hours. The best part? No double pointed needles! That John is a freaking genius I tell you.  Seriously. I don’t think I will make this colorway available because I didn’t even write down what I did. I kind of like that it’s a one of a kind and it’s all mine. I think it’s only fair for my first ever project with my own yarn.  (I started a pair of socks once but only did one so that doesn’t count)  I am also out of this chunky yarn right now and need to order more. I’ll put a call into Louet and see how quickly I can get more. Surprisingly it took me exactly one skein to make this hat. John thought I’d need more but I didn’t!  So anyway…..LOVE LOVE LOVE!

    Gah! My favorite colors and you’re not going to make them available! Sigh. I guess I’ll just have to live vicariously and move bounce up another spot in my queue… :)

    LOVE it! Gorgeous colors . . . *sigh* I’ll have to love from afar, but I don’t blame you for wanting to keep that colorway for your own. It’s amazing.

    It’s gorrrrr-geous! I also don’t blame you for wanting to have your own colorway - as well it should be!

    Hey, I bet I can use my 49ers colorway Louet Chunky yarn for this, right??? Oooh.. I gotta stalk John to get the pattern! I already have a cowl made, a hat would match cool!
