A new hat that doubles as a neck warmer

While searching the web for more patterns to crochet (my criteria is they must be free), I chanced upon this pretty pattern for making a convertible neck warmer cum hat and  immediately fell for it!

Armed with 2 balls of yarn from spotlight, I started this pattern, dreading the end as I have this bad feeling that I won't have enough yarn. What I have will work for a normal hat, but this pattern calls for more since it is an uniform size from top to bottom...

Lo and behold, I really fell short of just a few rows.  I had to dig thru my old yarn supply and was lucky that I had a bit of the dark blue yarn from the other hats left over.

The end product turned out much better than I thought thanks to the pretty yarn I had bought.  Really love the colour of that. Now I am itching for more of the same kind yarn to make more...
