Yarn and a hat

The sweater yarn is done! All one and a half pounds of it. It ended up being 1087 yards and it knits up to 5 sts per inch on a US7.  I’m going to use it for Elizabeth Zimmerman’s Seamless Saddle Shoulder Pullover for the Ravelympics. Now the real challenge is waiting until the Olympics start so I can start it. Here’s what it looks like close up:

I also ended up finishing the Botanic Hat the Friday before last and it has basically replaced my green Koolhaas for everyday wear.
