I spent most of the day “in town” … an appointment and errands and some “me” time at the library. I got home in time to fix dinner and then we watched the Bolts win … in overtime! Way to keep me on the edge of my seat.
I finished another hat while we watched the game. Pattern is Bankhead found free on Ravelry at this link.

Great day!
Go Bolts!! Another very pretty hat.
A few weeks ago I thought I would never be able to understand patterns enough to dislike one. I just don’t like this hat pattern. I don’t know if it’s color or pattern or me being nasty. I usually love the hats, but I can think of at least three people I know who would adore this hat so it is me. You are adaptive enough to makes hats that will appeal to a a wide variety of people. I am rambling but I am so glad you do what you do.
Your bankhead hat looks so nice. I tried that pattern once, and I never did it again.
