I made a hat. This is from the Fiber Trends pattern I did NOT buy the pattern from Patternworks. I ordered the pattern from them. They sent me felted sea creatures. Rather than deal with returning it, I bought the pattern elsewhere. I used Reynold's Lite Lopi on the recommended #9 needles. I followed the instructions for a large size hat. This is before throwing it in the washing machine. After putting it through two wash cycles, I put it on the deck to dry in the sun. I also put the hat over a mixing bowl to help shape it.

2004.09 update...I seem to have lost my hat. I remember having it with me on a walk along the waterfront but now it's gone. This means I need to make another one.
