I somehow managed to be a knitting maniac the last few days, and finished my Jenny Cloche last night.
I love it! It's cushy and warm and lovely. I did have some issues trying to cinch up the side seam (I couldn't get it to look right--it always made the hat look wonky), so I ended up just taking that out and left it un-cinched. I also ended up tacking down the bow on either side, as it was otherwise a bit too floppy and felt like it would come flying off. I think this is where my lack of sewing skills came into play (I should probably work on that...)
As I also mentioned before, I have also developed a deep love for Malabrigo, and I have quite a bit left over! I'll have to measure it, but I think I might have enough to make some handwarmers to go along with it...and we all know I have plenty of patterns to choose from in my Ravelry queue.
