montana hunting cap

these colors make me think of the rocky mountains in montana- dry and brown with evergreens. i'm not sure how fond i am of the middle green, but i think it works.

 

needs some washing to straighten out some stitches and help them to relax, but should fit 6-18 mo. i really wanted to continue the colorwork into the top, but i didn't plan it before i got there and ended up with an odd number of repeats. maybe next time...

 

ingredients:

variegated- hand dyed wool from 'the box'

dark green- patons canadiana superwash thrifted at my local thrift shop

 

and an extra tidbit about me, i was born and raised in montana (3rd generation) and grew up eating wild game. thus the name. winter is hunting season. my dad could be doing it right now.
