Hat? Done!

I love knitting hats. They're quick work but look more complicated scarves, and I don't need to make two of a kind to achieve functionality.

This is my first hat that's not a beanie. Not to shabby, eh? The pattern calls for a plastic mesh for the brim, but it's looking pretty good even without that. I got that funny blue/purple effect by knitting a thread of fuzzy purple yarn along with the main color. The fuzziness also makes the hat warmer.
