What was your inspiration?

i was playing around with texture and swirls. Using only one color to create a design.

What are you most proud of?

the shape of this hat. and how the swirls pull in the contrasting colors to create a scalloped edge.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

don't knit with distractions til you understand the pattern.
