12 Hats in 21 Challenge - Completed

In our Hats for Sailors Ravelry group we have a 12 Hats in 21 Challenge. I am happy to report that I have already met the challenge. Of course I'll continue making hats, my personal target number is 24. Considering I'm halfway there and we are only four months into the year, I should be able to make my goal. 

The pattern is Aaron's Hat by Uptown Purl and is available on the Third Base Line blog. I c/o 88 stitches and love the stitch pattern and coziness of the hat. I probably could have gone a few more rows, but didn't want to run out of yarn. I only had 15g left and I'll be honest, I stink at judging when to start my decreases.

I picked up the yarn up from a new-to-me Etsy vendor, HollyPKnits. She was a pleasure to work with and her pricing is reasonable. I like supporting small businesses, especially woman owned, and plan on purchasing through her again.
