Arrrrrrrr


A last-minute Christmas present for my son- We Call Them Pirates hat (pattern available here: http://www.helloyarn.com/wecallthempirates.htm). I'm using worsted weight yarn and size 5 needles but I'm getting the same gauge as listed in the pattern (which calls for a lighter sportweight and size 3 needles).


This is a fun hat to knit, and it makes me want to dig out an eyepatch.

I first thought the Arrrr was more of an Arrgh, but now I get it, its a pirate arrrr, not a frustration argh. I have the pirate hat on my to knit list as well, so watching with interest.

I LOVE this hat and mittens set. I really want to knit one up for myself.

I just finished this pattern as well, but I adapted it to a headband for my daughter's boyfriend. Hope he likes it. Merry Christmas!

I love your site and your spidey mittens. I am looking forward to knitting the elephand hat, the spidey mittens and the fingerless gloves. Put me in for the drawing
