Currently Underway

Before I finalized the pattern for the Zig Zag Baby Hat, I started with my current WIP. At first it was, "Hey, I'll try this, I've gotta start somewhere," but now it's more like, "What the hell am I doing?" and, "I hope it's finished someday and actually looks like a hat someone can wear..." Yeah, it's that bad. I had a nifty little pattern to work from, and after 2 repeats of the zigging and zagging, it's definitely too big for a baby or child, and too short for an adult. So I'll be throwing in one more zig and then we'll have another look at it. If it seems like something I can wear from there, we'll start our decreases (now off by 10 rows, sheesh). I've also decided the the color isn't quite right - too much variation to really appreciate the pattern. And oh yeah, I started it thinking I would purl the background and knit the pattern, but turns out I'm just knitting an inside-out hat. Interesting. I am still excited at all the great stuff I'm learning!
