Camellia


Pattern: Camellia by Kim Hargreaves
Yarn: Madame Tricote Camilla 6/4, 100% mercerized cotton, 65 g
Needle: 2.5 mm, 3 mm
Time to knit: 2 days


I decided I needed an autumn cotton hat, so I bought a ball of my favourite brick-colored Camilla cotton and made this slouchy beanie. The original Camellia is a short beanie, but I'm into slouchy hats lately, so I just continued knitting in the general style of the hat, until I ran out of yarn. Still thinking wouldn't it look better from behind if the decreases were more steep and dispersed ...??
