I spent a very pleasant hour in my sewing room yesterday, taking out all my yarn leftovers (I don't have a stash) and thinking of ways to use them up. I had this ball of Bernat Softee Chunky that I bought with the idea that I'd swatch for a sweater or cardigan, but I changed my mind. So I knitted up this hat from the pattern on the ball band instead.
It came out with a circumference of 16 inches unstretched - it stretches to 21 - and is 6.75 inches in depth. It would fit a 2 - 4 year old child. The colour is called taupe twist; hopefully you can see the colour below.
I would be happy to mail this anywhere in the world to someone who'd like to have it. Please leave a comment on this post and I'll draw a name at random in a couple of days.

Why Nicola! I wish we could waltz around the room in a pas de deux!
Thank you so much. It's perfectly lovely of you.
Hmmm...I just happened to have one of those (2-4 yr old child)...she would really look quite dashing in it ;)
Nicola, thank you very much. I shall wear it on my blog with pride, rather like the winner of your hat! Congratulations on winning the award yourself. x
Thank you Nicola for the blog award, now I want to give one too. I will be posting about it in a few minutes. Hugs, Nan
