Notes

Love this hat! I used size 10 1/2 needles for the body and being a tight knitter I was worried it might not be slouchy enough, in fact, the finished product felt a bit tight. The beautiful thing about this yarn is, however, that it relaxes and blooms beautifully when wet-blocked!
After wet blocking and shaping around a dinner plate it is PERFECT!

Now making a cowl to go with it. :)

The red yarn stretched too much when blocking. Yikes.

White beret was made using Classic Elite Mountaintop Blackthorn, 1 skein. Perfect.
