Gnome Hats: The Adventure



I have fallen madly in love with the Gnome Hat pattern by Pumpkinhaus.

My first knit of the pattern is the child's version that Duckers is wearing.

My second attempt is done on the adult pattern, exactly as it was written. For me, I ran out of yarn right at the end and did not have enough to do the ties. I used the Lamb's Pride Bulky on size 11 as instructed. That was a good lesson learned. I might have made it if I had used a 10.5US instead. I am going to try some other yarn I found at Hobby Lobby to make a couple more adult sized hats on 10.5US and see how that works out.

I hope everyone is finding fun things to do this summer~!
