Prize yarn arrived, plus new project

My yarn prize for the "Favorite CPY Project Runner-up" for my maizy socks came Saturday. Kid Merino, lace yarn. Soft and squishy It was hard deciding among all the lovely colors. Especially between the blues and the browns. So I picked "cocoa blues", which combines my current favorites. Not sure what this yarn will become. Probably something lacy.

Something new - a reversible double knit hat out of Mini Mochi. Idea for this came from those Kauni cardigans, like the one knit by the Yarn Harlot. Almost done, just have to decide if I should adjust sizing around ears.
