Before and after I knit what everyone said was a horribly ugly hat. I should have documented the hat itself, but just imagine cables and stripes with these colors. These were thrown together in a $2 grab bag at the Nazareth yarn store. I thought the color contrast was awesome, and it would make a great hat. But as I was knitting I was constantly torn down for my color choice. It would have been one thing if the hat were for me, but as I was making it for someone else I couldn't just give them what everyone had decided was an ugly hat. Imagine my grief as I slowly pull it apart. And now the question becomes... what do I do with my wonderful ugly yarn?
