What started out from one of these braids....
Became this skein.....
Which was knitted up like
this...

Gah...about 2" from this picture is when I ran out of yarn...
Note that first picture...yeah, I was saved, I had another braid! So, I did what any other spinner that had an extra braid of fiber....tore a hunk off and spun it up.

You see 40 more yards here in this wee little yarn cake....
The weight was more like worsted where the prior handspun was a sport/dk weight...

However, to finish the crown decreases...it didn't matter..
I.LOVE.this hat!! Wished it was colder! It fits perfect and the Finn does not bother me at all!

Two if By Hand
US 5 needles
Mods: I did not knit the cats paw lace and started crown decreases after row 67.
Love this colorway. Have almost a full braid left and a skein that looks a bit different due to a different fiber and way of spinning. Interesting how that happens ;)
Sigh..will have to wait for next winter...sure hope we are still in a cold climate though....hmmmmm...

Not too thrilled about the yellow bullseye...you know I dislike yellow ;)
