Since I do car riders at school in the morning, I really need a hat.
I absolutely love the pattern for the Super Bulky Button Hat from Kaleidoscope. It is such a fast yet nice looking hat. I used a Bernat Softee Chunky in the Nature's Way color and the cream colored Berant Chunky (the name of the colorway escapes me) instead of the Malabrigo Chunky it called for. Yes, it's not a natural fiber but at the rate I lose scarves and hats but it seemed prudent to buy cheaper yarn. The colorway is beautiful.
Ray is modeling it.
Instead of the button, I used a clip on flower. That way, I can change up the accent if needed.
I then went to the scarf. I started of with the cream and did something. I cast on 15 stitches using size 17 needles. The white part looks like two pyramids--one standing wide base up and the other inverted. The next pattern was a simple checkerboard. The next is YO and K2tog. The next is plain old knit. Then back to the YO pattern, checkerboard and inverted. Kind of wonky.
