This pastel, but still all natural color, version of the Blossom hat feels springlike. It sports a complete tubular edge of 12 rounds.
I hate the edge. It really doesn't behave the way I want it to. Still, it looks fine, but is not worth the extra trouble.
I am working on a third hat right now, in a different pattern chart. Picture coming next week. It will have just a 4 round tubular edge, and I am LIKING it. Have also tried a percentage change in the ribbing to see if that will give me what I like. When switching from a single rib to a 2-stranded stockinette color pattern, wonky things happen to the fabric created.
