I have just finished a very quick and fun knit. I cast on on Friday, and sewed the ends in this morning. This is the Maltese Fisherman’s hat by Elizabeth Zimmerman from her Knitter’s Almanac: Projects for Each Month of the Year. It was also in the Summer 2008 Interweave Knits, and is available to download til the end of July.

I love this hat. It was enjoyable to knit, and makes me smile to wear it 🙂 I am wearing my Mr Happy T-shirt today which I think suits the mood well. With a hat like this, cold weather seems positively inviting, though I think I would quite like to have summer first please.
