It's May again, this time after a particularly nice April. When there is a month of good weather in spring, in the Pacific Northwest, it always makes me a bit worried. Some may say I can't enjoy a good thing. Me, I just keep wondering when all the rain will come, because April is supposed to be at least half wet.
Just in case the wind and rain pick up late. Here is a knitted hat pattern sized for children and adults. Just in case. Who knows. :)
