Filed under: Knit
I was idly wondering: you know, I’ve never knit a hat entirely in ribbing from a skein of Mecha. Ribbing eats yardage (plus it’s twice the motion spent per stitch and I like doing stockinette more) and I was never jumping at the chance to spend two for the outcome of one.
My right hand is still requiring enough breaks in the knitting from that tumble that I only got this much done but I’m thinking the answer is yes, it will be enough.
Did some of this standing in line at the pharmacy; got a few “wish I could spend this waiting time getting something done, too” looks.
Still need to find out if there will be much of a fold to the brim.
Now that I have you totally on the edge of your seat I’ll just have to finish it tomorrow.

I love the effect of ribbed hats, but not so much the knitting of them – they take longer, but they sure cling which is sometimes a very good thing.
