Knit & Felt Tips #1
Never get over confident about how little a knit & felt project will shrink in a single wash cycle.
This hat was meant to be 22 inches around, but ended up being something like 18 inches because I didn't think it would shrink that much in a single wash cycle!

I stretched it back to size over a souffle dish, but unfortunately it's not as deep as I'd like. You can reblock the circumference of an over fulled hat, but not the depth.
The yarn is a self striping single spun from oddments from the junk box. These aren't colours I would normally have thought about putting together but I think they work really well.
