My hat continues apace.
I think I'll be doing six more rows in my bluish-purple (going downwards) and then start reducing it.
My hat is - at this point - seventy-seven stitches around. I'm thinking I'm going to reduce it by one stitch during the next row, so that I can do really simple alternating knit-pearl sets and just be done with it. My hope is to have enough of the multi-hued stuff left (maybe?) to finish the hat with a knit-knit-pearl-pearl band that is six rows deep (including the cast-off). But we'll see.
Anyway. Hopefully it'll work. The thick bands of solid colour are hovering around 12 rows wide... Maybe?
I've used three different yarns (switching between them) and both circular and double-pointed needles (haven't used DPNs before), as well as more than one kind of stitche, so I'm rather proud of how this is turning out.
Next project, I think, will be pink cotton-alpaca lace stocking extensions in a "really simple" pattern (ack! O.O) like this or this. But, for now, time to do some knitting-and-pearling. Whee! :-D
TTFN,
Amazon. :-D
