Notes

UPDATE: Frogged again. Wil reknit it, a bit smaller, and with better ribbing so it stays on.

It starts from the top which is good, I can size it as I go along.

Frogged and reknitting with yarn doubled. Much better. Changed to a #9 needle for the 2” ribbing at the brim. Fits good, has hefty feel, and is more in line with the dark brown one I made for Jose.
WIN.
