My fiance doesn't wear scarves (my signature item) so I taught myself to knit in the round and made him this hat. I forgot what brand yarn exactly, only that it's British, virgin wool, and comes from a black sheep (I told my fiance that he was the little boy who lives down the lane).
I used this very nice pattern from S
tephanie Likes To Knit. This was actually my second hat as I knitted the first one entirely too small height-wise and too wide as well. This one, is a keeper and I'll be giving it to my fiance for Valentine's Day (so that I don't have to think of something else to get him).
