So I did. I am using a bigger hook and watching my tension (I have a tendency to go too tight). I also switched yarns (because I didn't feel like ripping this one for half an hour straight - not right now). I picked orange to go with my parka. Big mistake. It's coming out like some sort of designer toque for a hunter - bright orange. At least I won't get shot by any urban deer hunters...
Anyhoo, I'll finish the orange toque, because I want to and it's fun crocheting. But I don't know if I'll wear it in polite company.
I WILL finish a project in 2010!

ben has one of similar size and shape, made from tinfoil. Have you considered tinfoil fashion crafting?
It's next on my list after pantyhose art. You teach that class, am I right? Do we need to bring our own googly eyes and blush for the cheeks, or is that supplied?
i will have a large collection of googly eyes readily available to choose from. My psychologist and life coach tells me that I have a hoarding disorder and that if i don't get rid of all the googly eyes soon, I might be evicted.
Have you considered sewing googly eyes onto your crocheting projects? Perhaps all those pillows need are some jolly googly eyes to greet you after a long day of work.
If I make you a toque, I promise I'll glue the biggest googly eyes to it that I can possible find at the craft store.
Ooh, and what about pipe cleaners. Do you like pipe cleaners? Who am I kidding, who doesn't. If I ever make you a toque, it'll be a sculptural work of freaking art - you won't know what hit you. Though a safe guess would be that it was a pipe cleaner that hit you...
I look forward to it so very much. I'd like to request that you line the entire edge with googly eyes of assorted sized.
