I started mine this afternoon. Im already up to row 26.

 

Here is a pic that I took about row 14, i think

 

Looks great:)

Well I finished it up! It does work up easy and stretches a bit. I included a bit of matching yarn for her to make a loop for the button if it's too small.

 

 

Now I just need to make myself one! Mine will have to be less wide though as this one really sticks up on the top. It needs to be about an inch to an inch and a half narrower to fit my head!

thats a good idea i will try that next time to make it less wide but i kinda like the way my first one turned out too nice and warm and cosy

Red, you used a single strand right? Did you switch size of hooks? Just wondering if a single strand would still make a good size...

:hookHi...i used a single strand and the hook size in the pattern...its comfy...a bit wider but I like it...

Thanks Red! I think I will try that for mine. The first one I did there I used double strands.

I finished mine. Im giving it to my sister for Christmas.

 

If I make one for me I need to make it smaller, I have thinner hair. It will be perfect for my sister who has a huge head of hair..lol.

I've started another one today for an off forum swap. I'm using sportweight equivalent yarn & a 4mm hook. I haven't made as many increases and I'm working it in dc in the back loops for a ribbed effect, so far so good. Pics tomorrow most likely

 

actually, pics tonight *lol*

I couldn't wait for daylight, I'm really pleased with how the ribbing looks.

Here's a pic of mine. It's made from some wool-ese that I got on clearance and a rainbow button. I used a single strand and a #7 hook.

 

I added a loop at the end so it fastens nicer.
