Yarn: Cherry Tree Hill Twister in Blues and Greens, about 100 grams
Needles: Boye #3 and #4 aluminum circular
Notes: I did not use beads, since this yarn is very speckly already, and I am too lazy to stop and figure out beading. I also squooshed the yarn down to gauge with teensier and teensier needles, until the numbers came out correctly. Had I stopped to think about the pattern, I would have used the proper needle size of #8 or so, and reduced the repeats. Now the hat is the correct size, but lacks spring and so doesn't cling to my noggin like it should.
Ah well, live and learn! And I still love the hat!
