Notes

Changed the bee pattern a little. Also changed the needle size for the colorwork section from 2 to 3. Made a huge difference in size, but I think that was because I had the carries too tight on the first hat.

MC: Go go boots - 95 yds
CC1: rainbow - 43 yds also used for band
CC2: groovy - 71 yds also used for honeycomb
