Thoughtful Thurs ~ Redo Rib Knit Hat

 

Remember the first rib knit hat I made?

Then after just practicing only the knit stitch

to make scarves,

I tried again? 

 

Well, since I was still snowed in

and stranded to the couch,

I decided to take the first hat apart,

and have a do-over

so I could start a box

of baby gifts ready to go.

 

Here it is......

I figured out one of my problems 

with the first hat,

as I used the circular needles,

I apparently picked them up reversing needles in my hand.

So I marked one needle with a green mark,

and now I make sure it is always in my left hand.

I don't have to think about which needle goes in my left hand.

 

I still have some stitches that

look fat

for some reason?

Gotta think about that a bit more.

So now with a box of baby gifts started,

 I'm thinking

later on

 I'll be glad

I had something on hand.
