Don’t usually like hats like this, but something about it is calling me…

The first one came out a bit small (Adult Small), re-did it in the Adult Large size to fit better.

Stopped band 1/2 row early for bindoff in order to pick up stitches without breaking yarn.

Picked up an extra stitch (knitted) on either side of the body to make picking up the garter band nicer, then cast on 4 for center back.

Added 1/2 repeat before join on body due to small gauge. Picked up 8 more stitches for garter band.
