Ta-Da!

Look what I made! It's a garment. I've graduated from making something you scrub your dirty dishes with to making something to wear on your head. 

Like, out in public even.
I made it for myself, but my lovely assistant was so impressed with it he couldn't wait to help model it for you. Okay, okay, so I might have bribed him with pizza. Now I'm on to making a matching scarf...

I love it and I love the colors too!! However, I will hope that the hate & scarf will be better used next winter!! :-)

That turned out great! My first hat I made with OLD yarn remnants. It covered the entire face like the boy on Fat Albert. I've gotten a little better.
