A matching hat

Firstly, thanks for all of you commenting! It made me feel all chuffed n fuzzy inside! 

Well, I had plenty of wool left, so I decided to embark upon a bit of knittery jiggery pokery witchcraft. For. The. Very. First. Time! 
I decided to make a little matching hat! I used the pattern ( for size n shape ) from this hat I knit 
But adapted it to match the cardigan! I didn't use a rib , I went for garter stitch edging to match the cardigan, then I added one pattern run! I was very pleased with how it turned out! I stuffed a tea towel in the hat to try and get the shape right for the camera!! 
 So now I STILL have a little bit of wool left so am knitting a matching teddy!! 
There are the legs!! 
Well in other news, the uni one will be taken back to uni tomorrow to start her last semester. It doesn't feel like two minutes since I was weeping and wailing about taking her! 

Hopefully the next time I blog, I'll have something other than this flipping cardigan to show you!! 

Love from
