Guided By the Lonely Star

“Guided by the Lonely Star, beyond the utmost harbour-bar, I’ll find the heavens fair and free, and beaches of the Starlit Sea. Ship my ship! I seek the West, and fields and mountains ever blest. Farewell to Middle-earth at last. I see the star above my mast!”
-Bilbo’s Last Song (at the Grey Havens) by J.R.R. Tolkien

My sister-in-law, Danyella, requested that I make her a black hat, so I chose a Lord of the Rings inspired knit hat called Grayhaven.  It was a fairly easy lace pattern and the result, while not terribly visible in black yarn, is really pretty.  I hope that Danyella likes it!
