one knitted beanie

  
Thanks to chunky wool and fat needles, I've finished my beanie already!  Fast projects are the best.  I really could have finished it on Sunday night if I hadn't had so much school work that I had not done for the whole holidays - ahh well, serves me right for procrastinating. 

I had to look up how to cast off and my stitching up the seam isn't very neat but I am not at all concerned by that. I am concerned by the fact that I didn't arrange my beanie for the photo so the seam was hidden but I can't be bothered going and taking another photo now.  One very obvious seam.  Thankfully, this is just a beanie for MR to wear for work.  It doesn't have to be super perfect.

It's a bit long but I made it that way on purpose.  It fits me okay, I'm just covering up my very very red nose from the 9302 tissues that have been used on it today.  Poor nose.  You don't want to see it, believe me.  MR's head is bigger than mine and he shaves it so he likes his beanies to cover ears and go right down to the base of his skull.  Hopefully it is not too tight, which it might be because it is about perfect tightness for my head. 

I did enjoy learning to knit, now I'm ready to learn to knit something that I have to decrease - ooh scary!  But I will wait and see if the beanie fits MR, I might have to make another one yet...
