This is my photo of the finished hat (from the top) and I am really pleased with the final product. I'll have to get Richard to take a photo of me modelling it as it looks even better on (well it does in my opinion!)The Debbie Bliss Rialto Aran was so lovely to work with and being 100% merino wool it is just so soft to touch and wear.
Its being modelled by a bowl (!) here in a kind of attempt to block it - not really working as Leah keeps pinching it!

Hey that was quick. You did a great job on that.
Oooh I do like that hat, bet it looks great on you. Do try to get a modeled shot soon :) That color looks the same as the pink bolero I did last year, I used DB merino dk for it.
Very pretty!
That's really lovely, well done you!
I don't know if it helps but my friend finished a beret recently and blocked it over a dinner plate which she said was a great way to tease the pattern out. Something to try if your little bean ever gives you it back? ;)
That looks fabulous! x
Oh it's lovely, my goodness you must have been knitting non stop!

Lovely, I wish I could do that:) I think it is cheaper to knit something by yourself, right?
I love it!
The colour,the pattern, all of it -you are so clever!! :O)
Esther that is gorgeous, love the colour. I adore hats, especially the Ascot type ones, they even suit me - which is a miracle, but somehow I just don't wear them.
Can't wait to see you wearing it.

Very pretty hat - Job well done :)
I love the hat! Looks gorgeous. I was wondering how it is like to knit with Rialto yarn (got the first book from 1-2 years back). Looks like a good one! I bet it would look great on you! Look forward to the photo. :D
