Uncle Scott lost his favorite hat and asked that I knit him another.

Gauge = 22sts/4inches in stranded.
Cast on 128

Did my own stranded pattern for bottom of hat before starting the semi-swedish squares chart.

Cast on was way too lose for a brim edge, so I picked up stitches around the brim and added a braid with the smaller needle, then went on to knit a liner with the smaller needle.

It really grew after blocking. I will need to full it a little.
