Knit a slouchy hat or beret!
Whatever you do, do not eat packaged food that has been opened! After coming home from tennis practice late Monday night, I opened my frozen dinner box to find that the plastic around the dish was open. I was too tired and hungry to reason with myself and just popped it in the microwave. I figured that the box was sealed so it should be fine. WRONG! I was up all night and sick all the next day :( Lesson learned!
Kat’s “Le Slouch” hat: pattern by Wendy Bernard
I followed this pattern as it was written and it turned out perfectly for my short hair. If I had longer hair, I might try to make this more slouchy. This pattern is fairly easy and could be knitted by an advanced beginner. I knitted most of the hat on circular needles and then switched to the double pointed needles when there were so few stitches that I didn’t have any other choice. The hardest part is really working on the double pointed needles… do not come near me when I am finishing a hat, as it is a very crucial and angering situation LOL!!! It is similar to walking in the kitchen when my mother is making pie crust… there are some things that you just don’t do!!! 
Materials: US size 9 needles (I used circular and double pointed)
Yarn: 1 skein! GGH Solitaire 142 yards. Color #5 Chocolate brown it is a merino blend.
