Desi Got Her Hat!!

I couldn't be more pleased!! I guessed at the loom size and it was right! Desi said it fits perfectly. She also said the color's also a perfect match for her dressier coat. I had actually made it for her to wear with her everyday black jacket. After all, just about everything goes with black...

She said it is so soft, it's wonderful! I was so hoping the yarn would be plenty soft for her to be able to wear it for extended periods when she's out. Her hat was made with Luscious available at Hobby Lobby. I told her I'm going to send a swatch made with Paradox and regular worsted so she can put it on her head and see if it's soft enough to wear. It's soft to me but you never know how it's going to feel to someone else. Everyone's skin has its own sensitive meter.

I've also completed a couple more hats but don't have pictures yet. I'm making myself a black worsted/black labrynth hat like the one I've made to give away. It's probably 2/3 done. I'm not sure what I'm going to make after that. A lot will depend on the response to the swatch(es) from Desi.

Happy Looming!!
