Back in June last year when I went to the Sydney Craft Fair, I bought two bags of mill ends from Kaalund Yarns. The bags contained various little mill end balls of Kaalund’s yarn ranges, from laceweights to some chunky “thick and thins”. I haven’t done anything to most of them yet, but I thought the thick and thins could make a nice beanie. The colours that I picked are very bright ones, there’s no way I could pull off wearing them. But the colours would be great on Annette I reckon. So I gathered up all the thick and thins.
Then started knitting in the round. I just picked up a ball, worked on that until it ran out, then picked up another, joined, knitted again, and so on. And tada! A crazy hat 🙂

What pretty colours, Claudine! It looks so cute on Annette.
Those colors look so bright and remind me of autumn leaves for some reason. Annette looks so sweet in her beanie.

It looks great Claudine. I used the Noro you gave me last year to knit a hat for Abbey (I don’t think I blogged about it) Anyway, Abbey calls it her rainbow hat. At least it’s guaranteed to go with anything she’s wearing.
