Notes

Test knitting for this Designer is always a pleasure. However, I am not going to lie, my backward knitting self was challenged this time around.

I had to frog a number of times. This is NOT because of how it was written. The instructions are VERY clear. In my case I believe it was my Lefty brain trying to play translator….

I will make this hat again, but this time I will do it a different way to see if it changes anything.

If you want to push your Brioche knowledge, this is a great pattern to do that with. It is not complicated, but you WILL have to pay close attention.
