Inga - DONE

Inga done_.JPG

Specs:
Pattern: Inga Hat - Link was given on previous posts
Yarn: Araucania Nature Wool in Green and Dark Grey
Needles: US 3 16" circulars and US-5 16" circulars

This hat didn't come out as tall as I thought it would be. I LOVE IT! It is very soft and very warm.

Because I am now getting a little too confident...I thought I would start some of Anna Zilboorg's Magnificent Mittens!

I have ripped this out already and started like 3 times. And yes, it's the same yarn as Inga.

Sigh.... I guess I got too cocky...

You little devil!

Inga's a beaut and your mittens-in-progress will be beautiful, too! AZ's mittens are great. What kind of thumb are you going to do?

Very beautiful, the hat and the mitt. I often will start and rip a project at least twice, and it doesn't have to be a complicated project either...

Don't give up! It looks great! Inga turned out beautifully - I still love the color variations in the green. I'm sure the mittens will turn out just as wonderful.

Well you wouldn't be learning anything if you didn't have to start and re-start would you!! They're both quite lovely!

The mitts look great so far. Are those the ones you were starting on Saturday?
I lost your e-mail but Lola Bunny is finished so it's on to the mitts. I'm only on the wrist ribbing and already have a question. Where the color goes back in forth is weaker than the rest of the ribbing. What am I doing wrong?

You're right, the Inga hat isn't too tall at all! It's so pretty!
