A proud knitting moment

My father went on a scientific expedition to study the ice sheets in Antarctica. Here's the website about his expedition and others. http://polardiscovery.whoi.edu/ Its incredible what they do, it looks amazing down there, at the bottom of the earth, bleak and beautiful. Before he went, I knit him a hat! (Which I wrote about already, but didn't have a picture) It was my first time using two different color yarns to make a shape. It got a little messy on the inside, and I had to take a needle and thread to it, so the red part wouldn't fall apart. But for a first attempt!
