Another Year, Another Hat

I LOVE this hat! It's cute and easy! When I first saw the pattern on Knitting School Dropout
I thought it would be much too difficult for my beginning skills but much to my surprise I did it and I did it relatively quickly! The hardest part about it was convincing Patrick to model a pink hat for me. But he's a good boychick and he obliged as you can see.
I love the yarn. It's a Cascade 220 heather but I'm not sure what color. It's primarily pink with a bit of red in it. Hopefully my photography skills will improve along with the knitting skills so you'll be better able to see the yarns eventually. Just take my word for it. It is truly lovely and girly without being overly so.
Oh and Patrick's wearing a Mets tshirt to offset the girly pink hat.
