I have this bad habit of not blocking things. I can't really explain why it is. It's like, I know that stuff looks super nice when you block it. It always makes knitted stuff look better. And yet, somehow, I rarely do it anyway.
But the tam definitely needed the blocking, so block it I did. The best part about it was that it called for being blocked on a dinner plate. I had a little trouble understanding what that meant, but it was AWESOME - you pull the hat around the plate, and the plate gives it the right shape! How cool is that?
So anyway, without further ado,
the top of the hat:
