Easy as 1, 2, 3 Hat.

Last night I was in Michaels to pick up some safety eyes for the crocheted Rocket (from Guardians of the Galaxy) that I'm working on. Turns out they no longer carry them. What they do, however, carry, is wool. And lots of it.

A skein of Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick&Quick, in Toucan, caught my eye, and I had to have it. (I know I am a yarn addict, but it's in my blood, I swear!) I rushed it home and worked up this Easy as 1, 2, 3 Hat.

Well since I am calling my blog and my shop Yarn Lab, I figured I'd photograph my hat in the lab. Turns out my dissecting scope makes a perfect hat model.

The finished hat is super warm and cozy. Perfect for the kind of day when you want to stay curled up in bed all day but can't.

The pattern for this hat is available as a free download  on Ravelry.
