What was your inspiration?
Varieties and Cultivars of apple.
What are you most proud of?
The decreases on the crown, as the rib disappears perfectly
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Check your row gauge, so that it is going to be long enough to get the slouch you want. Tighter rows means a shorter hat.
