Welldigger

My Minions,

I really liked working on the Welldigger hat.  It had a nice rhythmic quality to it.  A more experienced knitter might say it was a mindless knit.  I hope someday to be one of those knitters. 

I was a little amazed this turned out exactly as I had hoped.  I really had no issues until the crown shaping when somewhere between rounds 4 and 8 I missed a k2tog and ended up with one more stitch than I should have had.  I don’t think it affected the end result to a visible degree, and the Prime Minister never needs to know!  Here it is being blocked.  

And here it is being modeled by the camera-shy Prime Minister. 

I guess now the Prime Minister needs a scarf to match.  More on that in the near future!

Until next time,

Jessica, Empress of the Universe
