actual knitting content

For those of you who are tired of football and/or the Chicago Bears *gasp* I bring you knitting. Yes I knit on this last week. I finished the pirate hat. I swear the 2.25" of lining took just as long to knit as the rest of the hat! But I digress. I like the hat, I think I did well on the hat, the hat looks good, the hat is.too.small.
Hmm - swatch? for a hat?? Opps. So this is a child's version of the pirate hat. Only thing, I don't know a mother who wants their little angel sporting skulls and crossbones on their wee heads. It's a wonder.
I will use what I learned and move on.....to another hat :-)

The boy has deemed me worthy of knitting him a hat.....I've got chills.
