FO: High Street Hat



FO: High Street Hat, originally uploaded by halcyonday.

I’m down to two items still on the needles (The Leftover Vest and my Cheshire Cat stole) and thankfully, all the Hogswatch knitting is done. Hooray! Still can’t post any photos though – but am looking forward to the action shots!

I then realised that I still had a couple hours worth of knitting time left on my commute but a lack of suitable projects to fill them, so I dashed off to the LYS and purchased myself a skein of Artesano Aran in a beautiful green (Dawn colourway) and cast on for Fingersandtoes’ High Street Hat [Raverly link] after admiring it in the pub a couple weeks ago.

It’s a really quick knit – I cast on quite late on Tuesday night and during the week, I get most of my knitting done on the commute and then in my lunch hour but it was finished off this morning and proudly jammed on my head as I flung myself out the door for my last day before Hogswatch. (T-minus 2 hours and counting. I have an awful case of Lastdayitis today!)

I’ll def. knit it again because it’s ideal for quick, last minute presents. My Rav project page is here.
