218 Feet - Theme

*******************************************************
This weekend I knitted a hat. It's actually more like looming. I use this round loom that I got at Michaels. It came in a set of 4 different sizes. This is the largest.

Basically, you take the yarn and loop it around each peg until you have two rows. Then you use the hook to pull one row over the other. Then add another row of yarn and repeat until you are have the length you want. Then you can either crochet the top closed or run the yarn back thru with a needle and pull it closed.

You can make hats with brims or just keep knitting. I like to make hats without brims because the ends naturally roll up and then you can wear it with or without a brim, a little or a lot. It makes it kind of versatile.

Anyway, it uses about 3 feet of yarn per row and there are about 36 rows in this hat. Two strands of yarn was used for a total of 218 Feet. It sounds like a lot of yarn for such a little hat!

P.S. The last two are my feet with my blue toes and Spike. Because SOMEONE said "enough with spike" and to turn my camera on myself. Hmpf. Here you go! Brat, eh? :P
