Love the pattern. Cant wait to cast it on
I know i will love the final product, but as an older, simple minded knitter I am having trouble with the "long tail cast" on. I find doing it on a small needle (tutorials show it being done on a larger needle) is a little tricky. I finally got the hang of it but hadn't accounted for enough yarn on the long tail. I also might switch to a straight needle as the loose end of small circular was in the way. I love the monthly hat concept and can't wait for ones to come.
Great pattern
I loved making this hat! It was super quick and easy to follow, a great stash buster.
I am working on the Callisto Hat pattern using the Scout yarn in natural color, instead of Germantown DK. So far, I like it.
