One-Skein Hat & Scarf Reviewed by Lori Shields on 2010-02-03
This is a quick and easy hat and scarf, and a great pattern for the learning knitter. But the fit is large, and without any sort of ribbing, it does stretch out quite a bit after wearing. Also, as another reviewer noted, the length does not allow for much to roll up. I made mine 10 inches long and just got enough to length to roll up the edge about 2 inches and leave a bit of the boxy finish at the top. Because I like how quickly this knits up, though, I'm going to make another. This time I'll add ribbing to prevent that "stretched-out" fit, and I will make it longer as I like the slouchy look of the hat versus a close-fit.
If you are a beginner, this is a good pattern to start with. If you have a bit more experience, I think it's a pattern that you can easily modify. And, of course, the yarn is fun to work with!
