When the wind gets going in the winter, my ears really ache and I find myself wishing for a longer hat. I’ve been working on this hat, a few rows here and a few rows there, since February and given all the sick time sitting around, it’s finally done. No more cold ears! This is bison yarn so it’s super toasty and soft.
Sometimes I need a project that doesn’t require any thinking. Right now that project is the Lorne’s Hat pattern which requires 11 inches of 2×2 ribbing before decreasing for the crown. My ears are always cold and never quite covered by my hat so this time I am going to be VERY sure it’s long enough. I’m knitting this with the bison yarn I bought at Rhinebeck last fall. It should be exceptionally warm.
