green

Started a new hat today. A gift for a friend - this is about one year late, but at least I'll have it done for this winter. I hope it fits!

It's a prime rib watchcap - Zimmermann style. Debbie Bliss Maya in green (I thought it was Manos - very similar. Can't even remember when or where I got it). I am doing it in the round instead of flat - thanks to The Brioche Stitch site. I tried to cast on using the Italian cast on she shows on that site, but I couldn't get it to stay straight on the circular needle. It looks okay as is, so I'm going to leave it.

It's a nice cloudy/rainy day, great for watching movies and knitting. Not as great for taking pictures, but that's okay. Looking forward to December!
