Notes

Very easy pattern and fun to knit. Only bought one skein and thought it would be enough, but I was wrong!

Went again two weeks later to Storkurinn to purchase another skein, and that´s why it took me such a long time to finish the project! Otherwise it would´ve taken me two evenings to finish.

I like the yarn very much and instantly fell in love with it! It saddens me that Storkurinn are going to quit selling it… when I went today to get the other skein they had already taken it down in the store… the saleswoman went in the back to get the skein for me, and I love her for it!


The adult size is a little big… if I would knit this hat again (which is VERY possible!) I would consider to cut off one owl to make the hat a bit smaller, and cut down a few rounds before the decrease ;)

AFTER WASHING: The hat got three times bigger than before washing (as seen on pictures) so it´s big enough for a troll! ;) Can´t speak because I´m laughing too much!

Because I have such a great humor, I took a photo of me with the hat in my webcam and as you can see, it turned out pretty big! ;)
Will make another one, smaller, from this one ;)
