Hats & Sleeve Madness

The sleeves on 28thirty are making me crazy.  I hope this doesn't break my brain and make me want to avoid... stuff.  Neverending rows on double pointed needles is just ridiculous.

SO I stopped to knit two hats.  One as a gift (not to be pictured yet) and one for myself (so I'll talk about THAT one.)  I did a pattern called "Slouchy 2 Way Cabled Hat" which features a horseshoe cable and also standard cables.  It fits like a big, droopy kind of beret.  I used some more of the Misti Alpaca in Ember Melange... which leaves maybe one more skein before it's gone.  Ugh.  I love this yarn but jeeze.  Because of the Misti, the hat is kind of heavy which is not objectionable at all.  The weight of it is strangely comforting.

Back to sleeves.
