This baby hat was knit with yarn from Catskill Merino Sheep Farm, which I purchased the day before that crazy hurricane this past fall. The Union Square Farmer’s Market was one of few businesses open that day in the US area and aside from a few raindrops it was really an interesting, exciting place to be in the hours before the storm.
This pattern was from another planet, gauge-wise, and I’d not done anything stranded before, so when I decided to do another repeat of the design I should not have included that weird row of solid, which splits up the patterning and makes it look chopped in half. Oh, well. This hat is for a baby and that baby will not care. She’ll just be warm.
