I have heard it said that a truly accomplished person must also be humble and aware of their weaknesses. Apparently I am not accomplished enough, as I like to ignore any weaknesses I may have! Forge ahead, I am a strong woman! I can do anything!
Well it has recently come to my attention that I need to (maybe) take a knitting class. I love to knit, I am self taught (with the help of my accomplished late Grandmother), and I make one hell of a childrens knitted hat! (see my post on the animals hats, they are really adorable, I swear!). Well, in trying to make a hat for myself (an adult) I thought it would be oh so simple! Well, it is not. And apparently I can only really make baby hats because the hat I have started will only really fit my 6 month old niece.
Here is said hat <-- In the photo it may look almost normal sized...but it is about the size of my fist...This realization is quite frustrating. And in all honesty, I have no idea WHY my hat is the size of a small soccer ball? I added stitches, enough to make one think that an adult size hat would be possible. I may need bigger knitting needles? But that makes me hesitant as I like a tight and uniform knit (larger needles may create bigger holes in my knitting? I am not sure about this, but it seems logical in my head.)
I guess that is all for now...hopefully I can figure out these knitting issues. Stay tuned for a normal, adult human size hat!!
