My First Beanie(Fail)

in #ecency2 years ago

Hey there, hopefully you are having a wonderful weekend!

If not, i hope my post gives you a little laugh.

In the last 2 weeks ive been making a beanie with the round loom, which started out rough.

I had to redo it 6 times (its a late night hobby sometimes so i tend to be partially asleep lol) because of overwinding of posts, loops slipping off, etc.

Than i had a knot that made cinching the top closed impossible to a point because i cut the finishing yarn too short. Longer yarn is better.

I also ended the project too soon because it needed another 16 rows to fit on an adults head.

We live and we learn, right?!

The yarn is size 5 i believe, and red and white striped like a candy cane.

I had fun nonetheless and loved the challenge.

I used the ring below for the first time and i hope to show you an improved beanie soon!
