One more down...

I'm done!



Pattern: Foliage, from knitty.com (by Emilee)
Yarn: Briggs & Little Sport, maybe 1/3 of a skein?
Needles: 4.0mm (dpns to start, 16" circulars for main body of hat), and 3.75mm 16" circ for ribbing
Modifications: The pattern called for worsted weight yarn and 4.5mm needles, but my yarn came first, so I used smaller needles to make the pattern work. I added another leaf motif to the crown area (as per Emilee's instructions here) and another 1/2 motif on the bottom before doing the ribbing.
I LOVE the way it turned out. It's soaking just before blocking as we speak!
I sure hope my mom doesn't find this blog... :)
