Those Darn DPNs....

I started on my hat this evening. More than once. It was those DPNs...they got me. I have to admit that I own some, but I'd only ever used them for Icords.....







I started the hat, I frogged the hat. I started the hat, I frogged the hat. I kept losing my place because my stitch marker kept slipping off the needle. Then it occurred to me that my marker didn't have to be at the end of the last needle..... that one row could end and another start on the same needle!!! And voila, I got it. I moved my stitches around on the needles and it's been smooth sailing!!







I've only gotten a few rows done, but here it is....








I''m really excited. I've conquered a new skill!! And I'm finding that I am really liking this hat.
