However, there was a slight issue with it...
Yup. She hadn't quite finished it, and didn't have enough yarn to do it either. So I took it home with me, with the idea of finishing it off in a different colour. But, of course, that was never going to happen - by the time I rediscovered it in the bottom of my yarn box, it was too small for Hoot. So the hat got ripped, and I knit another Scrappy Sweater.
I LOVE this pattern - so simple, so versatile, and so sweet. Mixing up the dead-hat yarn with some leftover grey from The Squid's last cardigan, I came up with this. I even managed to do the colourwork, my first in...10 years?
Granted, the variegated yarn doesn't do well made it into inch high hearts, but I'm pleased with the tension I achieved and the floats on the reverse. Add a couple of soft pink vintage buttons, and we're done.
