Halfdome July 13, 2006

Halfdome modelled by Bernard the Big Blue Bear

Halfdome from the latest Knitty.

Knitted in Patons 8 ply cotton. I did in the round because I didn’t want to have to seam it. I probably should have just seamed it. I also reduced stitches after I should have stopped, so it has a little ‘nipple’ on the top.

I knitted it for Mark as he needs something to keep his head warm but tends to find wool too scratchy. I’m thinking of doing a couple more for him from the stocks of cotton yarn I have so that he has a range of colours to choose from.
