I’m running out of time before my coworker leaves us! So I grabbed a second set of needles from my interchangeable case and started the second hat I need. (I use the Addi Shorties set in the larger sizes)

For this one I am shooting for a larger size based on my newly evolved gauge so I went up to 96 stitches. I like working my hats in multiples of 8 so that I can accommodate 2×2 ribbing and have the kind of crown decreases I like.

Must knit faster!!!
