[knitting] Quick Pink Fuzzy Hat

Got distracted with some pink novelty yarn:

Quick fuzzy hat. I’m trying to find yarn in the stash for my first brioche knitting project. This pink stuff distracted me for a minute. #knitting #hatknitting #quickknitting

After the slow shawl and socks and tea cozy projects, I wanted to make something quick in just a couple weeknight evenings. This is an ultra soft and fuzzy hat. The yarn is bulky Skacel Luxor- given to me by a former coworker. This was a breeze to whip up on US 10 (6 mm) needles. Cast on 72, k2p2 long enough for a fold-over brim, continue on in stockinette, decrease, close, weave in ends, sip some wine, put on the finished hat, sip some more wine.

But now I should get back to stash diving for what I was really looking for: yarn for a simple, two-color brioche cowl...
