Friendship beanies

Last fall I taught a friend of mine how to knit, and recently she wanted to learn how to make a hat. I figured it'd be easier to teach her if I was working on the same project myself. And we thought, why not knit matching hats? We picked some brown Misti Alpaca and some pink Cascade and set to work.

It's the Kittyville Hat from Sn'B, but we're knitting it sans earflaps, tassles and kitty ears. Instead, we're going to put a ginormous pink pom-pom on top.

I feel like I'm back in elementary school making friendship bracelets. Here's a pic of my progress so far.
