I still need a name - a good name for this new hat. My initial thought - is it looks like some kind of Russian tapestry - and God only knows where I got that idea from! I don't even know what Russian tapestry even looks like - or if it even exists! So I may need Russian name for it. There is a hemmed trim that you can't see and a 2-colored cable for the brim. The rest of the hat is a fun Fair Isle print - using sock yarn. I'm blocking it, then will finish the crowning with a 3-point finishing which should be fun and easy. I'm thinking of finishing it in a 3-needle bind off in the green - maybe even adding mini tassels or I-cords to each tip. I'm excited to finish it and get it on a model. I can never tell if it's the look that I'm going for until I have it photographed on a model!
