@Lilian, I love those double pointed needles. I have several sets of them for knitting in the round. Love the hat you crocheted. I envy people who crochet as I have issues with it. I can crochet flat, the issues are when crocheting in the round.
I finished the second hat and the lady didn't like it. Grrrrrr. DD wants it though.
I have started a third one and will show her before I finish it. If she doesn't like it, I will finish it as a hat for me. Then I will do another blue one which I hope she likes. Then it will be a new pattern for these hats. DD gets to test wear them for me. It will be nice to try a new pattern as I have done 20+ of this pattern.
