A Slouchy Copy-Cat Hat for my sister-in-law. I loved knitting the Malabrigo worsted so much that I went to I Knit this afternoon and bought some to make a hat for myself (in the Redstart colourway, already cast on). They were having fun in the shop with the electrics playing up, but all was fixed by the time I left.
Today I wished I had a woolly hat to wear when I went into town. I was certainly glad of my new stripey mittens!
This hat took 1.5 skeins of Malabrigo worsted. Ive now cast on for another one adding a couple of repeats because I want it a bit more slouchy (Ive got a bigger head than my SIL). It does work up fairly quickly. Did you make it to Putney on Wednesday? it was a foul day. Brigid

It looks quite quick too, how much Malabrigo does it take? Bet you will be wearing yours tomorrow.....
