ooh la la!
once finished, i determined that all there was left to do was rip it out.
huh? what? why?!
well see, i liked the way i modified the placement of the lace pattern, so that it staggered rather than lined up in a straight line; but due to an unforseen lack of yardage, i only did 3 repeats instead of 4, so it was more of a beanie than a smooshy slouchy hat. and i don't like that it has consumed ALL of my beautiful Logan Circle, since the yarn was thinner than what the pattern called for. I want something a little more substantial- a little more mileage out of my 2 skeins. 30 minutes after finishing, zee hat... she was frogged.
a wide headband? a burgler mask? a cowl?
nope sorry. totally unravelled. i put it on, wrapped the end around the doorknob to my hotel room and took off running towards the elevator. that made a pretty big mess, but was hella fun. now i get why there are so many cartoons of cats playing with yarn.
anyone wanna help me undo all the knots?

Bring it to Murky, I'll help you rewind. Too bad, beautiful hat. There are a couple of cute scarf/cowl patterns on rav that might work.
Good luck with the knots!
