I rarely remember to participate in blog memes but since it's Wednesday and I have a WIP I thought I'd give
WIP Wednesdays a try. This is a new design (possibly - I might not right it up) - a simple cabled slouchy hat in
Colinette Art. I bought this yarn unlabelled at Ally Pally and in my head had decided it was Tao (despite not being very silky and definitely not a DK) so I'm knitting this far too tight and will run out of yarn. Still it's very nice yarn and knitting up into a lovely and very warm looking hat so if I can work out which colour it is I'll get another skein and carry on. It's a good colour on me and I need a decent winter hat given the cold damp weather in NW England and the prediction of another hard winter. I'm already in my winter coat and woolly jumpers...

The colour is fabulous!! good luck finding a second skein.
gorgeous colour! I hope you find a second skein
That yarn is really pretty - hope you manage to find another one like it!
I might just be able to squeak through with what I have - not many rounds left to do after knitting group
Fingers crossed you find more, this looks gorgeous so far!
Fingers crossed on finding the yarn! It looks soft and squishy.
Love the yarn color, hope you can find more.
Welcome to WIP Wednesday. A very auspicious start with such a gorgeous WIP!
Love the color! Good luck on finding another ball of it so you can finish. :)
The color is so pretty. I hope you can finish it.
Hope you find the yarn you need to complete the project. It really is a beautiful knit.
That design looks good. I hope you have enough yarn left. I'm with you on the temperature thing. It is definitely autumn here now.
Slouchy hats are awesome, I find these most comfortable as beanies can get very hot and itchy to wear.
I love the wool you are using too :)
I hope you can find more of the yarn you need.
I wish it were cool enough for a sweater here in the SW US. I'm sick of HOT.
Beautiful yarn , I hope that you can find enough to finish the hat .
I really like the color and can't wait to see it finished!
