Finished: Crown Town Hat

This is my finished Crown Town Hat!

Pattern: Crown Town Hat by Carina Spencer (Rav Link)

Yarn: TreasureGoddess Merino Sport Treasures is Poseidon’s Trident and Making Waves

Needles: US 5s

Mods: So many. I knit the colorwork backwards, I added unnecessary rows to the main body, I worked the KC as stranded colorwork, and I decreased at a faster rate to mitigate the elongated body.

It really turned out okay-ish. It is just a big hat. Which should be fine since my dad has a big head. The finished hat used just over 200 yards of yarn between the two colors and the finished hat weighs 75 grams.

I do think I will attempt a second one to see if I can get it right and follow all the rules this time. Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn!

Happy Knitting!!

  3. Yes, you are right; sometimes you win and sometimes you learn. Love that reasoning! Nothing is lost, is it? I like the hat. Did your dad like it? Hope the next one turns out the way it should!
