This hat took me a long time to finish, not because it’s hard, but because I was so ill. Some days I could only do a couple of rounds and some days I didn’t knit on it at all.

The hat is very easy to do - I don’t bother with all the R and L twists that keep both sts on the needles and knit them out of order. I think it’s easier and looks better to just knit the 2 st cables by cabling them. I don’t need a cable needle to just move one st, so it’s actually faster for me to just rearrange the sts and knit them as 2-st cables.

I really like this Knit Picks Brava. I just wish it came in larger balls - then again, I suppose I should be thankful that KP doesn’t put it up in 50 gr balls!
