I know it look as if I never knit anymore but...

Contrary to public opinion, I'm still a knitter (albeit a much slower one than normal). I just wanted to share with you my newest FO. It's Koolhaas from Interweave Knits Holiday, designed by the amazing designer Jared Flood, aka Brooklyntweed.

I learned how to cable without a cable needle. It's tricky and you need to have fast fingers. I dropped a few stitches towards the top.
It's a warm hat and will get a lot of use (especially in Southern California). I'm thinking ski trip now that winter is here.




Do you think the hat needs a pompom?
Yes
No
Maybe
I have no idea. I just wanted to vote.

Could you put on two pom-poms so they look like boobs?

Great colors! I love how it's not ridiculous for a knitter to plan an entire vacation around a newly knitted hat!

Great hat! I've been thinking about knitting that one too.

I've been oggling that hat myself. It looks great just the way it is!

Cute hat! The texture is quite nice, and I think it looks good without a pompom.
