About a week ago I picked up my trusty size 15dpn and cast on 36sts of bright, obnoxious acrylic yellow. I garter stitched three rows and switched to a green that has a decent amount of blue, and next to that yellow looks Kelly green. I did quite a bit of Ravelry searching, searched Lion Brand, and Yarnspirations and came across http://www.yarnspirations.com/nordic-hat.html this Nordic hat. I did a variation on it. It looks pretty cute, but the top is weird because I decreased too quickly. But, any more rows and it would be too big, and I really didn't want to take out any rows.
Update: it worked beautifully. Gifted and now loved by my best friend, Julia, the hat was a bit tough finishing but ultimately a success. It was not to big, but just right!
