the other half of the skein

The cowl in my last post was made for the shop. It was pretty much half of the skein (145 total yards) I had to make something out of the other half and I wondered if I could get a hat out of it. As you can see there was yarn left over and the hat is plenty roomy. I used size 10.75 needles. I know that's an odd size, I bought it a long time ago thinking it might come in handy some day and this was the day! Two great gift ideas out of one skein of yarn.
