That hat is HUGE

So the kids at my work started a project before I arrived to knit 100 hats to donate to a homeless shelter or something like that. they use, among other things, these looms:


Most make baby hats on the small one or regular hats on the medium ones. I always notice that the huge on is not being used. at all. So, when one of the kids taught me how to do it yesterday and I finished my pink baby hat, I thought I'd get ambitious and move on to something bigger. but the only loom available was the biggest one. lol.

So i got some fuzzy green and white yarn and got to work. I picked up a double (was there in the morning and asked to stay) yesterday and in the evening I was with a room of boys. When I walked in, they had some art therapy and were pretty quiet. Through out the next 3 hours, as I plucked away at my "hat" each of the 8 boys commented, totally separately, to me something like: "wow...that hat is HUGE" "That's a BIG hat!" "I have a big head...and that Hat would DWARF me"

heeheehee....I love those boys. They crack me up.
