You’ve got to love how fast hats are to knit …. even with having to switch to the dreaded double pointed needles for the decreases. One of these days I’m going to “reteach” myself how to knit in circles on two circular needles. I used to do it all the time when I was knitting socks but I haven’t knit any socks in years.

I was afraid this would be too small since I forgot to switch to size 8 needles but since it fits hat head, I’m sure it won’t be too small for the toddler it’s intended for.

And the back ….

Hi Mary! This hat is so pretty. I love the little swirl design on the top. This is almost too sophisticated for a toddler. ~smile~ Roseanne
I love it and thank goodness for quick projects. Lots of feeling good about our achievements with small projects.
Your knitting is beautiful.
A cute pattern! I like the garter stitch section.
Love that pattern but I could never manage those needles. I have a hard enough time with two. Beautiful hat!!
Interesting hat. What pattern is that? Congrats on the finish!
