Angora Hat

I started this hat ages ago and never got the motivation to finish it...until it got absolutely freezing. Since I end up taking long walks in the cold with my adorable boyfriend, I thought I would probably need something warm, yet still adorable, to go along with me and keep me warm...you know, besides the boyfriend.

So I present, the Hat:

Pattern: Lace-Edged Woman's Hat from headhuggers.org
Yarn: About half a skein of Fleece Artist's Peter Rabbit in a colour I think no longer exists, though I think it's the rough equivalent of today's Polar Sea
Needles: Size 6 Clover bamboo DPNs
Verdict: Love it. After a washing, it seems not to be so threatening (shedding-wise) anymore. It's bound to keep my large head warm on chilly English nights.
