Merry Christmas Hats

Hats for gifts:

This rainbow hat is Stitch and Bitch's Devil Hat, but without the horns. I used my new favorite Bernat Mosaic yarn in Waterfall. It's 100% acrylic, but it feels like you're working with cotton.

This is the same Bohoknits' Sockhead Hat that I made for Tyler. The sock yarn I used was two other projects before this hat.  When I bought it years ago, it was going to be a sweater for Britton.  That didn't go well.  Then it nearly became a completed hat, but I dropped a stitch and the pattern was so complicated, I had to start over.  The third time's the charm.

Another gnome hat from the pattern Earflap Hat I made it with a leftover purple, lavender, sage yarn.  I don't remember what brand it was, but it was softer than the Red Heart acrylic yarn I usually use for my gnome hats.  It's edged in Lyon brand sage acrylic yarn.






Thank you to my hat model, Kayla.
