My mother in law isn't actually a hat kind of woman, still she wished for a home made woolen hat for Christmas. So the challenge was to make one she'd actually want to wear. My Japanese stitch dictionary and one of my favorite yarns in a color I knew she would look great in, resulted in this hat. It's a success. She does look good in it. The hat is sloughy enough not to completely mess up her hair, still not sloughy in the berety sense, which I don't think would suit her as much.

Veldig fin hue!
It's a lovely hat. Nice work.

Kjempelekker! Du får garantert solgt dette mønsteret også om du legger dem ut på Ravelry.
Ellers; takk for 2008! Takk for en kjempeinspirerende blogg, og utrolig lekre mønstre.
Ooooo! I love it.
Beautiful hat! I totally understand how difficult it is to handknit for someone who is not a knitwear person. But you have made such a wonderful creation. A very Happy New Year to you!
Lucky (and attractive) Mom-in-law...........she looks really pleased with her gift as well!
You did well!
I love the hat! :D
Thank you all for those lovely comments! I will probably make a pattern out of this hat, but not yet. Have too much to do these days.
I bet she's gonna wear this hat! It's beautiful and it looks gorgeous on your mother-in-law!!
