This yarn that I bought online last year from Smiley's:
recently became these hatz, destined for Afghans for Afghans Dulaan (dang, missed the A4A October 12 deadline):
Colors are true in the first picture, which was taken outdoors in natural light. Although I was supposedly using exactly the same pattern and the same size needles for all, the seven hats somehow ended up being seven different sizes. Oh, well, they will each fit someone.
The yarn is a lightly spun single ply, lovely and fluffy and soft, a wool/acrylic/alpaca blend. I knit the hats variously on US#7, 8, and 9 needles, depending [apparently] on the phase of the moon.
