Living in Wisconsin is amazing, and one of the most interesting things being here is that people notice hats. Here you HAVE to wear a hat; it's just too cold. It was a "warmish" morning today with temperatures in the low teens with no wind. So people dress appropriately. But, if you wear anything other than a regular black stocking hat, people notice. My chicken hat was a HUGE hit. So, knowing that and wanting to dig into my stash of smaller balls of yarn, I did the Sheep stocking cat.
This was super fast and easy to make. If you're comfortable knitting in the round and are ready to tackle intarsia knitting, give this one a try. The floats (where you carry the yarn behind the stitches you're working) for color work are short which reduces snags and frustration and you're only working two colors at a time.When you stretch it out or put it on and see the sweet sheep you can't help but smile.
Feel free to purchase this hat from my etsy.com shop: Pineknollknits.com
