I like hats.
As the weather started to cool and I was ruffling through my knitted and crocheted beanies and bobble hats, I realised that one style I did not have and do really like - a slouchy beanie, the type that slump comfortably without scrunching upwards pulling hair or slipping forward on to your face or even worse - go on admit it - we have all worn knitted or crochet hats that pinch upwards giving you that garden gnome look!
Happy?
Of course!
I will start another, this time in a darker grey or navy blue - I want it for working and having grubby hands does nothing for a soft grey colour!
Pattern? I used THIS one - simples :)
PS - I hadn't realised how long my hair had grown ..... it is usually tied up and out of the way :D
That's a great hat and it looks lovely on you. Your hair is beautiful. X
ReplyDeleteAw thank you, on both accounts x
DeleteI do think your hair colour is wonderful. I do love it. I like hats too... I do have a slouchy one but it always falls off down the back of my head. One day I will amend it as I do like the yarn! x
ReplyDeleteAh thank you lovely lady,it has taken my years to actually like the colour! You'll have to show me your amended slouchy hat xx
ReplyDeleteIt’s been a year since I decided I ought to amend my slouchy hat so I can’t see i happening soon!
DeleteGet to it missus!! 💖😊
DeleteI too like hats & have thought about making one, so will now definitely have a go ready for next winter. Your hair is getting long(mine has been too during this lockdown year), & yours is such a gorgeous rich colour, as mine (before grey) was only ever the strawberry/blonde tone. My Dad's was more like yours. Take care, stay safe & huggles.
ReplyDeleteI did not know you were a red head too :)
DeleteLove this hat!
ReplyDeleteThank you, so easy to make, just finished my second one this evening😊
DeleteLove the hat and desperate for a new hat myself. Pity I can't crochet! x
ReplyDeleteThank you! and crochet is easier than knitting :) Youtube is a brilliant learning source
DeleteOoh, thank you. I'm very bad at knitting so I might give crochet a try.
DeleteLovely and it really suits your hair :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Fil :) xx
DeleteWow I love the hat and your hair is gorgeous. Such a beautiful colour x
ReplyDeleteThank you on both accounts :) x
DeleteOH! my you are a red head.....gorgeous colour !! I hadn't imagined that. If you have blue eyes too then you belong to a minority. In other words there are not many red heads with blue eyes. Just a little bit of useless information that I picked up I don't know when :-) The slouchy suits you!!! keep well Amanda x
ReplyDeleteGreen eyes - both my boys are green eyed too. Eldest and mine are 'avocado' green where as Youngest is a little hazel green.
DeleteFabulous!! Green eyes are beautiful!! My grand´daughter has hazel green eyes :-).
DeleteAs you know, I love the slouchy beanie...my project this weekend is to try and make one too. Like the other comments, Dad said after you had gone, how long your hair has grown. Not seen it properly down for ages. xxx
