This took about .75 of a skein. It was a perfect way to use of a random skein that was leftover from a previous project. The construction is great (yeah, you have to seam up the pico edge, but it’s not that bad) and I love the way that the change in needle size makes it snug around your ears, but slouchy up on top. This yarn is very warm. I tried wearing it on a 50 degree day, but it was just too warm. Good yarn + Good pattern = pleasant to knit project.
