Handspun Hat

I used some of my handspun yarn to make my dad a nice warm hat. The fleece I used was some black welsh mountain and I spun it semi Worstead style as the fleece was carded rather than combed. I was very surprised how even it knitted up as I have been apprehensive of knitting with my handspun as it does not look perfectly even. But I was pleased with the finished knit and my dad seems please too!
