Guess what's done cooking?

It's true! It's all done and ready to ship out to little F... and in case you'd like to see it from the side...

The brim was made into a crust instead of the green stem that the recipe (Fiber Trends CH-9) called for. It was knit on US5 circs and then on dpn's as the rounds got smaller and smaller towards the top. Oh, and to do the K5b stitch, a crochet hook in the appropriate size really helped. The Cascade washable yarns worked really well for this! I wanted to give the parents a break in case they need to wash it at some point.
It feels so good to get something finished! Now back to tackle that simple sweater...



Cute! I really want to make some fiber food for my kiddo. Very inspiring, thank you!

That is super cute. It sounds like it knitted up pretty quickly, now you've got me thinking about the newest little baby in our family...

I realize I'm just finding this site years after you posted it, but I really like the K5B stitch and your berry hat. I started making a slouchy hat in that stitch, but my attempts to decrease are failing miserably. How did you get yours to line-up and look so good?!
