my grand daughters hat -

[sandy562]

I had to make this three times - as I kept getting holes where I would increase - but I finally did it -

 Pretty, what yarn did you use ?  I love the sequins!!

[sandy562]

It is Contessa by Rozetti - a acrylic made in Turkey - it is super bulky - I thought I could get in a quick project by Christmas - but didnt finsih until after New Years - hahaha

I have another skein - so I may try a smaller hat -

[wooly]

 did you order it thru Paradise Yarns or just from your LYS?  Paradise yarn has such pretty stuff, but the shipping is killer, but still when you only pay a couple of bucks for a really nice yarn it sort of evens out.

I got it from the clearence bin at my LYS ( local yarn shop) they were the last two skeins she had

 Sandy, you're killing me! That yarn is drop dead gorgeous and you probably got it for a song!!  LOL!!

the skein is marked 9.85 - half off - so both skeins were about 10.00 dollars - if she had more - I would buy it - but that was the last ones and if she orders more - it would not be on sale - sorry :(
