Yet Another Owl Hat



Well, I decided to make an owl hat out of that eyelash-ish yarn from the previous post.  I was hoping to be a bit more creative, but it just wasn't working this time.  It is pretty cute, though.  

I used Palette Collection Series 001pt/219 in color Lilac Wine, which I believed is discontinued. Holding that together with Caron Simply Soft in color Plum Perfect, I just made a typical beanie using a size N hook.  I tried it with the tassels for "ears" but it didn't look right with this yarn.  I am giving it to my niece, so I will see how it looks once it's on.  Probably won't be a good hat for the winter because the large hook made for some good size holes, but it should be good for the next month or two. 

This hat used up a little more than 1 out of the 3 balls from my stash, so there are 2 left to be dealt with, but that is for another time.
