Two-Hat Thursday

A Complimented lace hat [rav link]. In this lovely safety orange (it may even glow in the dark)! I don't know exactly what the yarn is, a cotton/acrylic blend I think. Everyone will see her coming down the street in this one!


An owl hat. This one is who? [rav link]. I did go up one size in needles as this yarn was a little thick, but I have no idea what this yarn is, only that it feels like a cotton/acrylic blend (I think it's the same as the orange) and is hot pink!

Both these hats are gifts for my friend C. in Colorado. She loves all my hats, but since she shrunk...uhm, washed....uhm, felted...two wool ones I made her (even after I told her to hand wash!), I don't give her anything that can't be thrown into the wash machine!
Also, these were both knitted in about a day...so they are a very quick knit and I highly recommend them when you're looking for a quick project to finish!

The owl hat is very cute. I remember way back when my boys were little I knit vests for them with the same owls across the chest. Brings back memories....
