The last version you saw of the daisy hat is no more. Having thrown away all my yarn labels (Bad! Bad!) I fecklessly decided to try to felt the hat in hopes of making it smaller. A trial run with the Christmas sock went well - well, it went oddly, but felting did occur. The yarn used for the toe failed completely to felt at all; how odd, I thought. So I threw the daisy hat in the washer with two pairs of jeans and a little detergent. 10 minutes later, I found a mess. Half had unravelled completely; no signs of felting at all.
Yeah, it went in the trash.
Superwash wool will not felt. A good hint that your yarn might be superwash? It expands in cold water.
So... behold Kamryn's hat, version 2.0:
Peachy, eh? :-)
