Here is a hat that I made for my brother. It’s probably my least exciting/complex Christmas knit but I’m really happy with how wearable it is. For the basket-weave pattern I just cast on 90 and worked k5p5 around for five rows, then switched. So simple! The yarn is Mirasol Yarn Akapana. It’s thick-and-thin, which I didn’t realize when I bought it, but I like how it turned out. P.S. My mom just told me that he wears it every day! That’s the mark of knitting success, right there.
