New Hat

After searching high and low for one of the many hats I've made myself over the years I came up empty handed so decided I needed to make a new one.

I chose a pretty pattern from issue 11 of Simply Crochet magazine, using Tivoli Aran superwash wool.  I used a 5mm hook though instead of a 4.5mm hook as I tend to crochet a little on the tight side - well either that or I have a big head!  I also did 3 rounds of half trebles instead of double crochets as I wanted a slightly wider brim.

It fits beautifully and does the job of keeping my head warm now the weather's finally become colder.  As normal it's another shoddy photo as its just so dark and dismal here still!
