This was definitely a fun pattern to knit, although next time I will probably do like some others have done and use a provisional cast on for the brim.

In all honesty it did NOT take me nearly 2 months to knit. I got the vast majority done in a week and then lost my knitting mojo. The other 7 weeks were doing a row or two at the most per week.

This was my “Once more into the breech” pattern. I had attempted to knit this shortly after I began my knitting career and failed horribly. This was my redemption and it was so sweet. :)
