Notes

The pattern calls for 3 colours, but I’m using the same color for the ribbing than for the rest of the hat’s main colour (Dark Gray).

February 8, 2020

I finished the hat last Tuesday (Feb. 4), but I wanted to take a picture before I let my son wear it. He was very disappointed to have to wait one more day before wearing it to work! grin I finished the cowl on Friday night, after work, and he promised that he will pose for me on Saturday wearing the set. More pictures to come!

I’m very happy with the result, although the cowl should probably be blocked to prevent the i-cord edging from curling up. However, I think that I would have to fight my son off should I wish to hang on it a little longer to block…

I’m now casting on the second set for my other son.
