My Two New Hats

Since I have finished more than 10 items from my UFO collection I took a break last week and made 2 hats --possibly for holiday gifting.  The striped hat on the left is knit using Jared Flood's Turn a Square pattern (free on Ravelry.com)  I used a Malabrigo worsted solid in brown and striped it with Zitron's Nimbus, a self striping organic merino.  It was a quick knit and the alternating stripes kept it interesting.  

The hat on the right is knit from one of my hand spun yarns using a chemo cap pattern from Ravely.race for Life 2009 chemo cap by erica downs.  It has a little bit of lace detail in the first couple of rows.  This was another quick knit --finished in one day!
