FO Friday: Blue And Gold Handspun Hat

My handspun Musselburgh is DONE and Jellybean helped me model it. This has been done for awhile but I got swept away by deadlines and holiday to-dos and forgot to get this photographed. I have even worn this once to hang Christmas lights in 28 degree weather.

Pattern: My own loose recipe based on the principals of the Musselburgh hat by Ysolda Teauge

Needles: US 8s

Yarn: My own worsted/bulky handspun and a TEENY but of mystery DK to finish the final decreases

This hat came out to an Adult Medium and fits either me or Jellybean quite nicely. I used the 80 stitch count and it worked out nicely. I used every inch of handspun and this is a deliciously warm hat with two layers of worsted.

I can see the benefits of this pattern/recipe for my single skeins of heavier weight handspun. There might be more of these in my future!

Happy Knitting!
