Notes

Another Harris Hood, because my SIL spotted the first and hinted strongly sweat_smile Just in time for Christmas, it’s a quick knit and I was happy to make one more. Still have to make yet another if I want one for myself!

Same as with the last one I made two button holes in the ribbed brim, and an I-cord to run through it. It’s always nice to be able to tighten the hood around the face when the wind and snow gets too intense. Also, this time I changed the number of stitches for the brim - I picked up 3 out of 4 sts around the edge rather than every st like the patterns says. I thought the hood became a bit heavy with the very dense brim the first time around, so I thought I would try something different now. It worked out really well.
