I made this using Mandala yarn for my daughter. It came out beautifully!

This is a lovely hat, but in reading through the Notes, I found a bit of confusion. The designer says that the RIBBING is worked in Rounds but its actually worked in Rows. There are several combinations of stitches, so I was very happy to see that the designer included a link to an instructional video for this project. At 55 minutes long, its pretty much a Crochet Along.

The colors are what always get me. They're some of the most vibrant out there. Whenever I'm in the store and have an extra coupon, it almost always goes toward a skein of Unforgettable!
