Mary Maxim delivered so.....

 

I go into my patterns, pick up my needles and go for it.

One night of television will yield me one girl's hat for Community Living in Hamilton

I was searching for a hat that wasn't a toque because they are lovely but not particularly feminine.  This is a beret style hat and so comfortable on your head. 

Of course that wasn't the end of the yarn by a long shot 

so

I made a toque for a man.

The beret pattern is a free download from Inspirations.

The toque pattern is free also
