This is what happens when a- your guy is complaining about being cold while browsing around (we're having the coldest Sicilian Winter I've experienced in the past seven years!) the net and b- whenever I open the stash cupboard this ball of already rolled odds and ends keeps popping out. Burgandy - acrylic (ack) the orange a crochet weight cotton and a strand of purple/orange/red cotton. Lucky likes short hats, i.e. without the brim, something head hugging so this was perfect. Funny I didn't have him in mind when I was making it I was just knitting up a ball that demanded to be knit up. With the final couple of meters I made a tassle, no need to toss it in the trash. You know you have The One when he actually wears silly things you knit up!
