This was a fast knit! The twisted stitches along the band are beautifully defined by this yarn. Important not to slip the first stitch of each row. Pay attention to row gauge; it will make a difference when it comes time to pick up the stitches for the crown.

I loved this yarn so much, I actually went to the mill to buy some for another project. It gives great stitch definition.

I did not add the buckle, so that’s why my photos don’t show it. It’s exactly the right finish for the band.
