I completed my 60's scarf and started working on my hat Saturday. The last time I made this hat I made it too long so I made adjustments in the length- cutting it back 2". Well, I tried it on and it was too short- it didn't even really cover my ears! So I had to rip all the way back to where I began decreasing and follow the directions. It looks pretty good if I do say so myself. If everything goes well at the airport I will start my mittens in route to Anchorage.

I purchased 6 skeins of lions brand wool-ez and I am thinking about returning it and buying a more expensive or better quality yarn for the poncho I am making. I'm still making up my mind on this subject.
