"Rather Cunning" Knits

Yep that's right I made the Jayne hat from Firefly. It's a gift for my brother for Christmas. So, shhhh don't tell him. I'm about 99.9% sure that he has never looked at my blog or ever will. I'm going to post this despite the .1% uncertainty. I feel it's safe. Safer than condoms (bad joke).

I used a pattern that I found through Ravelry from Keiyla's Blog. She did extensive research that I felt I could not top, so, I followed her direction. Turned out rather well I think. We will have to wait to see how it looks on my brothers big mellon though.

I should be painting

But I'm making mittens instead! These are my first pair of full sized mittens. I usually only make fingerless gloves. They have competing stripe colours and the stripe sizes were decided arbitrarily, because I like wonky looking things!
