![Saw The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare which is based on a true story. It was excellent!
There was action, humor, and solid character development. Also, I love a good tale about a band of misfits making a great team!
The cast was the largest gathering of symmetrical faces I’ve seen in a hot minute. Wouldn’t kick any of them out of bed for eating crackers.
I hope you have the Sunday you need, Crew! I love you!!!

Once upon a time, I made a cute baby hat, but it was too small, and by too small, I mean it wouldn’t go on a 6 month old baby girl, much less the lady it was intended for (no, I didn’t do a gauge). So, I made a second hat with the hook size recommended for the adult hat….and I could tell it was still too small. I ripped out the single crocheted edging and went up from an H to a K hook and crocheted the edging again. no dice. Ladies and gentlemen, I went up to a size N. That did the trick.
It fits!
Pattern: Cloche with Small Flower #40464-1C by Lion Brand Yarn
Yarn (hat): something like Vanna’s Choice in purple
(flower): Vanna’s Choice white
Hook: H, N
Regrets: I wish I’d done another row of DC before starting the edging and a few more rows of SC. I’m still pretty happy with it; this little lady makes it look good.
Ps. Iknitarod update: I’ve finished 29 of 42 points on the Hitchhiker shawl and Martin Buser has arrived in Anvik with Mitch Seavey, Jake Berkowitz, and Aliy trying to catch him.
Pps. Check out what others have finished at Tami’s Amis and Wisdom begins in Wonder and Natural Suburbia

So sweet!
isn’t she?!?!
I totally sympathize with you, every time I’ve made a hat it has come out too small, no matter how good my gauge or if I follow the pattern. I’m glad that your hat found a happy (and adorable) home!
me too!!!!
The hat is so cute and is just adorable on!
Thank you, kind lady!
Third time is a charm! Your little model looks incredible in her hat! Great work!
Thanks, Sweetie!
Very cute, the flower tops it off nicely. :)
ooooh, I love the baby cloche!
Thank you so much.
Omg, the epic cuteness. Love it!
and I love the phrase, “epic cuteness”.
Fantabulous! Great hat, beautiful model :)
I love seeing your work in real life. I sure have a talented bestie!!
