Star Crossed

January 7, 2010 By Mindy

7 Jan

This may be my fastest finished object ever.  EVER.  I cast on for it on a Saturday evening, and I finished it around 1 am that same night.  I didn't knit on it that whole time.  I read a story, knit a few rounds, read another story, knit a few rounds, fixed dinner, fed kids, bathed kids, knit a few rounds, nursed the baby, put her down for the night.  After all that I sat down and finished it in about 3 hours.

It's really hard to get a good picture of yourself wearing a hat.

It's a really fast knit.  It's a really easy pattern.  It's my "I didn't want to fix my hair" hat.

Pattern: Star Crossed Beret

Yarn: Lorna's Laces Shepherd Worsted in Chino

Needles: US 8 and US 10.5

Filed Under: Hats, Knits
