Three-in-one

Here is my neck warmer hat from the new Interweave Knitted Gifts. The yarn is a handyed/ handspun worsted by SpinneMann that I bought over two years ago at the Naked Sheep in Portland, Oregon. I love this yarn so finding the perfect project for it was a must. The pattern was written to be knitted with a dk weight yarn on US7 needles so I adjusted it to match my gauge of 4st/in on US8 needles by only casting on 96 stitches. I love this hat because it can be worn three ways- as an open hair sack, as a neck warmer, and as a hat so it should match just about any mood.
