Done! This was a rather finicky project. I did get into a good rhythm with the yarn about 1/2” into the brim, thankfully. I’m not a fan of twisted rib, generally, and this hat is knit entirely in twisted rib (so that’s my fault for not being more aware). However, I love the FO, and the yarn is dreamily soft.

The hat has just the right amount of slouch, as well. And I was pleased that I could get a nice hat out of one skein.

I do not have a large head, and I’m typically a very loose knitter, but in this case, I used the suggested needles (which I never do, I size down needles by usually 1 size for every project I knit) and ended up with a snug, perfectly-fitting hat. If my tension were tighter, or more average at all, I would have a very tight hat.
