Summer Project #3

Hat for Elliott, originally uploaded by dejarlids.

Okay! Now we're basically up to the present. I started this hat mid-August and finished it mid-September, as a gift for my newborn nephew. It's a Dale of Norway pattern made with Baby Ull.

I need to work on picking up my stitches more evenly in edging so the fabric stays nice and flat, but for now this'll do for me. I don't think the baby or his parents will mind the bunches too much.

I had real trouble finding a button that fit the hat nicely, but I always have button trouble! Mostly because I leave the button shopping until the last minute.
