I’ve switched to Size 10 needles to accommodate the variation in weight of this yarn. Not sure if I’ll have enough to finish the whole thing. The inside (the wrong side) of the hat is actually as interesting looking as the outside (2nd photo).

Update… It’s going to be close - If I have to, I’ll frog and start over - She’s posted a similar pattern on Craftzine that looks like it would be less yarn. But I’m hoping…

Done… had ALMOST enough - had to graft using another wool - it almost doesn’t show.
