I knitted the Wonder Woman hat for Girl X in a little under three weeks. Getting around to weaving in the final ends, washing, and blocking it took almost another week. Posting it on the blog took four days. All things considered, this is my new knitting record.
I tried it on after I blocked and it fit me fine. I decided that it might be a bit big for Girl X. I had planned for this one to be a St. Nicholas day present, but the new one will make a nice stocking stuffer.
The color combo is perfect. It's exactly what I had in my mind's eye when I decided to make this hat. I started out knitting a little looser because I've heard that cotton can be hard on your hands and wrists. That just threw off my stranding. It wasn't anything to cry about, just annoying for me. For the next one, I'm just going to knit like I normally do.
