Checkerboard Mesa Hat

A while ago a friend was over and the Checkerboard Mesa Hats were out on the table. He picked one up and proceeded to wear it the rest of the night. He's this big burly Swedish guy, a very conservative dresser, and the sight of him in the hat was hilarious. He requested one and I said I'd make him one without the curlicues but he insisted on the curlicues.

Anyway, I made him one in blue shades of worsted weight wool from the stash and when I present it to him for Christmas I'll offer to cut off the curlicues if he prefers.





I really have to get a photo of him in the hat.
