Felt cloche
I come across a cloche hat pattern on craftsters.org about two week ago, I really like the way it fit. I been reading all the post there to find out how much yarn do I need and the pattern stated 300 yarn. So I brought 9 balls of yarn but end up I only use 2 balls.. obviously I miss read some important note, ..yes they use double strands where else I use only single strands on heavy worsted yarn. I have altered the pattern a little on the brim just to make it a bit thicker so it does roll up.
Pattern : One Skein Stirling Cloche
Yarn : Nireana japanese yarn - 100% wool
Yardage : 81m on heavy worsted weight
Needle : 6mm

I love how that turned out. I've wanted to see one done in something other than the Stirling before I made one. Well, I did see one other one, but it didn't seem to turn out too well. Yours is adorable, though.
