FO: what's the story morning glory (waffel hat)!

Whee! I love this hat! The yarn is called cranberry something, and I'm pretty sure it's 100% merino? Regardless, it's so squishy and soft and hand dyed by Ryan from Knotty By Nature in Victoria. The colour is just wonderful. I originally bought it to make Koolhaus by Jared Flood, but I wasn't interested in joining a flock on this one.

The pattern was great! It was a little confusing at times, and I did one additional decrease row of k2togs the whole way around. But despite that one row, I didn't change a thing! So that must equal a good pattern! The yarn makes the hat a little springy on my head right now, but as I know from my other hats, it'll stretch out with time.

I love the colour(s) so much! YAY! In other news, I obviously need a new camera. This one isn't doing it for Port Alberni light :(

This is my Ravelry project page, and this is the pattern page from the Pickle's website!

Also, beautiful hat!

Also, the top of our chimney collapsed last night at midnight. Isn't that crazy?!

Also, I miss you.
