| Nikita's Transformer Hat |
Pattern: Generic Norwegian Hat by Adrian Bizilia
Yarn: Dale of Norway Falk in red (4018) and steel gray (5762)
Dates: mid-June (?) to 1 Sept 2012
Notes: This hat took three years (on and off) and three needle sizes to get the gauge right. The hat is a little too big, but Nikita is fine with it. We'll see if he actually wears it.

Pattern: Ann Budd’s Handy Book of Patterns, with chart from Pirate Girl Colour Chart by Erssie Major
Yarn: Bernat Softee Chunky in Black and Natural (28008)
Dates: 30 Aug-2 Sept 2012
Notes: Intarsia is relatively easier than fair isle, even in the round, thanks to this technique. And much quicker in bulky yarn.
