Pansy

I finished a hat--for me! This pattern is called "Pansy" and is from a pattern book by Louisa Harding. The yarn is also by Louisa Harding. All the patterns in the book are very whimsical and feminine.
The pattern called for it to be knit flat, instead of in the round. I am always a little annoyed when I find that out! I love knitting hats in the round--it just doesn't make sense to me to knit them flat and then sew the two sides together. Oh, well, I like the way it turned out despite my reservations.
I'm wearing it with the skinny cabled neckwarmer that I made a few months ago. Does anyone else look forward to colder winter just a little bit just so they can wear cute wintry accessories?

    I love the hat, and of course the neckwarmer :-) Mine is finished but awaiting the final button, I must have put it the button on and taken it off a million times already!
