Well I finally finished my first hat project...its a tad small...honestly it's child sized! Oops. Guess skipping the first step of checking gauge was not that smart. I just assumed that the gauge shown on the skein was what I needed to use.
I am a tight hooker. So in reality I will have to use a larger hook to create the hat in adult size.
I also changed up the directions from the original pattern to use a contrasting color for the finishing band, and I added a flower (
pattern here) because the child recipient of this hat loves pink!
Now I know to check gauge before I start a project like this...ready for the next project!
Happy Hooking!
