Le Chapeau

The hat........... New Years goals always seem to start off with a bang. This year I wanted to learn something totally new and creative so my goal was to knit a hat. It seems everywhere I look I see these cute little knitted creations. I wanted make something totally similar but mix it up a bit with my own style. Since we live in HOTLAND most of the year I decided to turn the ordinary beanie into more of a spring look.(this also could be because I have Nooooo idea how to knit in the round) Of course everyone I know that knits is in MESA, I had only the Internet to turn to. Keep in mind I have never picked up a knitting needle in my life so this was all new to me. I can't tell you how many hours I spent in front of YouTube videos at night after the kids went to bed! It took me forever to learn how to hold the darn needles I was ready to turn them in and use them for a hair accessory. Just doing a dang slip not was killing me. Needless to say I stuck to my goal and figured it out and finished my first hat!(quite possibly my last)


Voilà Le Chapeau~
