What was that? Where are the flaps? Well, as you can see it didn't quite turn out the way that I had hoped. I did make the flaps (and they are actually still attached, just hidden), but the hat was about 2 inches two big for me. Because of the size being off the flaps fell in a weird position and just looked silly on me.
I really like this particular color of yarn though (I think it is called Lagoon) and I might try again just with a modified pattern to try and make it fit my head more closely.
By the way, this here is the website where I found the pattern. Obvsiously, mine looks nothing like the example. The pattern is in fact pretty easy to follow. I have a hard time following written patterns so the pictures were super useful. And to be clear, there is nothing wrong with the pattern itself, I just a) don't know how to crochet very well and b) have a small head.
I have a couple of failed hats, usually because I skipped the gauge swatch step. But I like the color!
ReplyDeleteUh yeah I totally never do that step, which is why I'll never improve my crocheting skills.
