Today is my birthday and I wasn’t feeling my current projects, so I cast on another blue hat. This one is Onion Organic Wool + Nettle in Denim, I think, or maybe it was Blue Jeans?
As you know, a blue hat is my favorite thing to knit. Doesn’t the nettle give the yarn a nice sheen and crisp stitch definition?
I’ve spent the day reading and knitting and listening to podcasts and trying not to work. It’s a blustery day out there, but we did get a walk in!

Happy birthday! Have a wonderful day. I have some nettle fibre in my stash from one of the World of Wool fibre club boxes. I can definitely see what you mean about the shine and crispness. Xx

Happy birthday! Hope you had a fabulous day.
I totally love that blue. At first glance, my still-sleepy self thought the skein was a part of the hat, and wondered how you knit it, lol!
