My Best hat (till now)

Now that you know Tova, I can tell the hat story.
In one of my yarn searches, I bought one pack of this lovely yarn:



I often do so - buying one pack of yarn I like, without any purpose or knitting plan. What usually happens is when I eventually decide what to do with it, I need about 4 packs. And there aren't any to find. No where.

So, this time I actually chose something that could have fit the amount of yarn I had. A hat.



This yarn is so thick, that in about an hour and a half I practically finished it, and started straggling with its visor, for something like a week or two...

Eventually I was so happy with it, that I didn't care that it's not really flattering me... but, the winter in Israel is not that cold. So the next day I had to give in to the fact that wearing it to work will be pathetic. And quite hot.

I left it at home. Unprotected. When I came home from work, it became clear that Tova liked it too.

There it was, my beloved hat, chewed up and filled with dog hair and saliva.

I refused to give up. Went to 3 yarn shops till I found that yarn. bought 2 packs of it, knitted it once again and once again straggled with the visor. It's not the same, but I do love it. And after all I do love Tova. I just pay attention of keeping my hats inside my closets...

Note: next time, try to comb your hair before modeling hats dear... thanks (:
