Hat 179

The same friend that gave me that ribbon yarn also gave me this fuzzy soft puffy yarn.  Whenever I have yarn that soft, I always like to make a hat of just the yarn and not mess it up with anything else.  But usually they are a little plain so I have to add a little bit to brighten it up.  Luckily my sister had gotten me a bunch of these huge flowers for my hats and a large red flower was perfect for it!

 A friend of mine gave me some cute ribbon yarn and I wanted to figure out a way to crochet it without loosing it's cute pattern.  So I crocheted a purple hat with lots of holes and then weaved the ribbon through the holes.  I am really happy with this hat, but it was actually a bit annoying to make.  Maybe I'll make a similar one someday when I'm in a good mood.

I have buttons.  I have tons of buttons!  Once there was a sale at Ross and I bought a bunch of different colored buttons to put on hats!  But I really haven't used many of the buttons sadly.  So I finally did a cute little button decoration hat!  I used some Caron Simply soft in black and found the last bits of a yellow multi string yarn that I had.  So since I think this hat came out pretty cute, I guess I have to pull out my button collection!

Back to work with the hats!  As the previous year, I've been slacking on my hats a little and making other items.  But I got a few and I plan on amping it up to make my 25 by dec! 
This hat is using up some green scrap yarn I had.  It's sort of like a shoelace type feel to it so I added some soft yarn in off-white to help it out a little.  This with some basic brown yarn makes this a little earthy hat.
