We were sitting at home last night, daughter in bed, nothing to do.  I didn’t have anything on needles, so I decided to fix my new hat.  It was just too short.  I frogged down to the start of the increases, and added an inch to it.  I was able to get it finished up before bed last night.  I wore it out today, and it’s great.  It probably only needed 3/4 of an inch, but I like a big hat that I can really pull down over my ears.  I’m much happier with it now.

My MIL finished her hat today, just a few minutes ago, while I was casting on the Celtic Cable Cap  I’m quite proud of her.  She spent a lot of time on this hat, and it looks great.  She made a few mistakes.  I frogged it back for her once, I tinked back a row or so twice, then she asked me how to go back herself, so I showed her.  While she was at my sister-in-law’s house, she frogged out about 10 rows on her own.  She did it exactly right, and you can’t tell where any of the issues were.  The entire last part of the hat, she did without any issues.  She even made the transition from circular to DPN without any laddering or other issues.
