Top that
My third project for the Yarn Magazine KAL.
Sarah Golder's Sock Topper from Yarn, issue 8 - the current issue. The yarn was left over from a pair of socks and was exactly the 25g called for - hooray, no more scraps! Bummer, I've got 9g left.The hat's very sweet and I'll be able to use those 9g somewhere, I guess.
Couldn't resist photographing it on my favourite hydrangea which Dad propagated from a cutting off his, now deceased, plant. Originally it came from a cutting taken from Mrs Norris, also deceased, the mother of a family friend. The glorious rain of the last few weeks has made the garden explode with blooms.

I love hydrangeas. They are quite in vogue here now (well, not now, but in the spring). You see them in wedding bouquets. The hat matches quite nicely.
The hat is too cute!
That is a cute hat. I should use some of my scraps up for little hats!
I love hydrangeas. My grandparents had heaps and they remind me of good times.
Have a very merry Christmas!
What a great way to use up leftover sock yarn. So how large is the hat? Baby or toddler size??
Ha! 3 items already for the Yarn KAL? You're kickin butt!
Meanwhile, I am officially off the KAL bandwagon, never to climb on again, but YARN is a pretty good reason to break that rule. Not that I am, but I'll cheer you on from the sidelines!
