I know, another hat

But this one is my new go-with-anything hat!

Photographing the top of your own head is tricky


The super cute and popular (with good reason) Felicity pattern. I love a good stocking cap and this one has just the right amount of shaping. I know some people had issues with the brim being too small but mine fit perfectly using the recommended needles and cast-on amount. Followed the whole pattern exactly actually (not always common for me).

Felicity by Wanett Clyde

I used the uber economical Caron Simply Soft for this. Love that stuff for this kind of thing. This hat isn't your heirloom colorwork piece, it's a stuff your hair in it, beat the crap out of hat. Easy to care for, soft and non-scratchy on the skin. Plus a $1.25 for a hat? It won my thrifty heart.

Doesn't look like much flat

It looks so unassuming laying flat. You can see the the overall shaping a little better here. The brim simply uses a smaller needle size to create a neat fit.

Pattern: Felicity [ravelry link], by Wanett Clyde of Knitology

Super Cute! I have to admit that I love Caron Simply Soft yarn.. its just SO fuzzy and the fact that its washable and practically indestructable makes it even more great. Don't get me wrong.. I wouldn't give up my Malabrigo for it, but its still a great yarn that most 'yarn snobs' are missing out on!

Pretty! And it would indeed go with anything.
