What was your inspiration?

I made this so I could practice the pattern for the full hat and I TOTALLY recommend doing this . The chart made MUCH more sense when knitting the hat after having knit through the project once in miniature.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I wouldn't suggest swatching flat since you have to use the chart totally differently working in the flat. Also, use the chart for the larger hat for the swatch so it comes out more cup-sized.

I've bought the class and I've been doing the flat swatch. I thought I wouldn't have a problem with the chart for such a simple pattern but jimminy! I keep getting the rows mixed up and tearing out rows and rows over again. Sigh...It will get better but for now, I'm struggling. I just watched the Atyira hat classes and boy it's scary.
