Notes

Easter = yellow-greenish spring colour
Benny = bunny + beanie + penny (the name of the colorway)

Mods:
Followed the Rikke hat pattern, but made the body of the hat in stockinette.
Hold the yarns together for the entire hat.
9 inches from the cast on to the start of the crown decresases, followed the patetrn but just kept knitting stockinette.

Needles:
3,5mm bambu circular 40cm for the cast on and brim.
5mm bambu circular 40cm for the body.
4mm sock needles for the crown, when the circular started to be too long.

I LOVE THIS! <3

The hat can be used as a soft, loose and easy beanie OR the brim can be turned and then it’s a warmer and not-so-loosen hat! Perfect for the spring and when the wind is still cold! Did I say I love this?! Because I do!

PS: On the picture I look JUST like my mom, when she was my age! I had a wet hair when I put the had on my head, and the wind made my hair curl backwards like in “That ’70s show”! :D
