30 Days of Knitting Day 6

What is your favorite piece that you’ve knit? 

It's far from my best knitting (the majority of it was knit between 2am and noon for a 3pm deadline aka sleep deprived and between classes) but I'd have to say the final version of my Monmouth cap.  It's shorter than it should be and not quite wide enough to fit my head but it's the only hat I've made starting with roving.  I spun the wool (on a hand spindle...thankfully the spinning wheel was invented), dyed it using black walnut and knit the final cap over a span of about two months.
