cable hat

I bought more yarn at Knitter's Lane.  I seem to have been doing that a lot.  This is a light purple brushed suri fingering weight yarn... I saw it and wanted it, and decided I was going to make a shawl.  It's fuzzy and soft.  Which is sort of the point of brushed suri yarn.  It turns out that suri is a breed of alpaca that has a finer hair than regular alpacas.

We got home and made my first hat ever using a super soft alpaca yarn from yesterday's shopping trip.  Cables are fun.  And hats, it turns out, are also fun.
