So.... I bought red yarn.  (I don't actually all ready have red yarn so there!)
And I wanted to make a hat.
And I tried.  I really did.  I found a cute pattern (Read: the pattern for the hat Hermione is wearing at the graveyard in Godric's hollow.)
And I really did try.  All day.  And it still isn't a hat.  Like.  The pattern made my brain hurt and ( Read more... )
