Well I completed something new yesterday while the baby was sleeping. A puff stitch hat! I have never crocheted a hat before so this was a first for me. I followed Teresa's plan from her You Tube site and it made if very easy. Thanks! I couldn't believe how quickly I was able to finish (3 1/2 hours). Check out her video posted below.

There were a few changes made though. Instead of 24 puff stitches after round 4, I made 25 and also did 12 rounds rather than 10 to fit my head a little better. (Lots of "puffy" hair) How? Don't ask but it happened. Also made changes in the single stitch at the end to try and tighten the hat up some. It came out very pretty, but the orange doesn't really match anything. However, I will wear it today to my doctor's and hair appointment.
I want to make something else very soon but I am going to try to do a different project a day. So today I'll be working on either scrapbooking or painting.
Well that's it for today! See the picture of the hat. Looks pretty nice huh!
