A Weekend of Hats

This weekend I knit up two quick hats for the boys- a striped baby hat in reverse stockinette stitch with a rolled brim (that was a fun way to use at least a bit of stash yarn), and a striped stocking cap for the "big boy". That was done in Patons Shetland Chunky on size 10s- nice and quick.

I also tried to buy yarn for my next "large" project- hubby's sweater. I'm planning on doing the Urban Aran from the Patons Street Smart booklet, but with the modifications ala Jared over at Brooklyn Tweed. Unfortunately I need 13 skeins of the yarn (more Patons Shetland Chunky) and wasn't able to find enough at any one store. I ordered it online this morning.
