And then instead of the recommended yarn, you sub it with something else that caught your eye. And then you block it and await for the final moment – the moment you stare back at yourself in the mirror.Dude that’s not how I envisioned it.
Oh well. At least the yarn was nice to play with.
Pattern: Mobius Hat
Materials: 1 skein of Cascade Sierra (80% pima cotton 20% merino wool 191 yds), sz 7 needles
And the leftovers are good for a set of 4 coasters. David the Gnome approves.
