• The beginning of this pattern is incredibly frustrating, not because of the instructions but because of the excruciating Twister positions I found myself in trying to get through the pinhole cast on. But I DID it!
All things seem possible now.

This is the first time I’ve knit this pattern and it’s just wonderfully genius! The possibilities of color choices are endless. This will be a Christmas prezzie. Brown on brown for my adventurous husband.

Started with US 2 Dpns, 7”. After increase rounds, switched to US 2.5, 16” circs. Then reversed this order for the opposite end for the decrease rounds.
11” each color for a total of 22”.
About 9.5” across.
Bittersweet Heather: used 41.9g
Bark: used 38.6g (may have mistakenly knit fewer rows, but I did not weigh skeins at the beginning…maybe there was less Bark?).

Honestly, I think he’ll be smitten.
Update: he is smitten with it! He wants another one. He picked 2 colors for the next hat
