Questionnaire:
What needle size did you use to get correct gauge?
Main Body: US 4/3.5mm
Ribbing: US 2.5/3.0mm (personal preference for tighter ribbing)
Colourwork:US 5/3.75mm
Did you have any issues with using the self-striping yarn?
Please let me know of anything related to using the yarn for this pattern that you found confusing or difficult.
None! The directions for how to wind it and where to separate colours were very clear, the directions for using alternate yarns were also easy to understand and would be easy to adapt/use.
Were the directions clear?
Please direct me to any instructions you found confusing.
The only issue I had was in the stitch guide there are instructions for M1 (make one), but in the hat increase section, there are instructions for M1L and M1R, for clarity it might be a good idea to include those definitions in the stitch directory as well.
Do you have any suggestions or comments about the formatting/layout?
I found the column layout a little bit confusing at first, but after a few days of knitting it was easy enough to follow, that’s my personal preference for horizontal layouts though.
Did you enjoy knitting this project?
Is there anything that would have improved your experience with this pattern? (Negative feedback can be very helpful, so any thoughts are welcome!)
This was an interesting knit, I haven’t knit a two sided hat before, so it was really fun to see how it worked as I went.
Please share any other comments (positive or negative) and any suggestions you have for improving the pattern.
