Ta da! My Dulaan five is complete. I also made a hat for Rabbitch. The cardigan and the four hats in the top of the photo are for Dulaan, the bottom on is for Rabbitch. I'm not done my Dulaan knitting though. I love making hats. Or anything in the round really. I'm thinking mittens next.The striped hat in the centre of the sweater is made with Patons Soy Wool Stripes and when I was over at Swatch This I saw that Marlena is also knitting with it. She's right, it has really nice drape and the sheen is a lot like mohair. I'm going to use a slightly smaller needle next time to tighten up my gauge though. In a hat I was getting a bit too much drape. I have one more ball in a pinky colourway for another hat and 3 balls in an autumn colourway that I think might become a scarf or a hooded scarf. We'll see.
Okay, I'm off. Dinner and Deadwood! I love Mondays. Oh. Did I really just say that?
Oh, wait! I also cast on for this last night for a friend who's having a baby in November. So cute.

Those Dulaan hats are so sweet - and so are you for helping.
That pic with the kids and their hats is beautiful. I saved the PDF to hand out to my knitter relatives... thanks for the link. x
I got your hat today -- you rock! Thank you so much. One less chilly head on our streets ...
