I fumbled through the first few rounds of the chart, but after round 5/6 it just clicked. From there on the pattern became kind of intuitive. I still checked the chart each round (just to double check), but it’s pretty straightforward.

My ribbed brim came out a little loose, so if I knit it again, I’ll use a smaller needle for that. Otherwise, I LOVE this pattern and am super thrilled with my FO.
