I am also busy designing another creature, when I saw this variegated blue I just knew it was the right colour for the project:)
Hope you are having an inspired day.

WIP Wednesday and Yarn Along
Oh happy day! I managed to finish my Journey Slouch Hat! I remembered when I was spinning this roving that there was a small ball that had been spun up previously. I went searching for this yarn, scratching through the wool cupboard and I found it! So the hat is finished, Jen was so kind to wear it for the photos. I love the softness of this yarn, a flax, silk and Merino blend. I wasn't too sure about the colour, but I fell in love with it when I first saw it as a roving, (you know what I mean, you see some yarn, have no idea what you're going to do with it, it makes your heart so happy to just look at it and you simply must have it).

ReplyDeleteYour hat is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had enough yarn to finish the slouchy hat.
ReplyDeleteI'm wracking my brains - what creature is sooo blue and 'chubby' looking?
Can't wait to see...
That pattern is super fun and it shows off handspun beautifully. I've four hats in that pattern now. Yours is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHappy day that you remembered hidden yarn! Your daughter is so beautiful Linda and the hat looks just lovely on her.
ReplyDeleteThe blue yarn...a bird or a whale? Guess we must wait and see.
Happy yarn along.
Love the hat but I am totally drawn to that blue, what a fabulous colour!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda,
ReplyDeleteI am guessing with that beautiful blue..... a whale?
Glad you could finish the hat. Jen looks gorgeous in it!

ReplyDeleteOooo, a new creation. I love the yarn. I didn't have a clue, then I read Tracey's comment. I am guessing SHE guessed correct. Can't wait to see if it is a whale.

ReplyDeleteGreat hat. Your next creature is it a whale?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful hat, can't wait to see what you're making!
ReplyDeleteThe colors of that hat are very pretty; they remind me of one of those quiet, watery winter sunrises.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the hat! Shape, colour and all! I'm very tempted to try my fledgling knitting skills on this one......you make it look so easy!!
ReplyDeleteNew pattern?.... I"m thinking a whale..... or maybe an octopus, if you don't already have one!
Such a beautiful blue for the new creature - what's it going to be ???
