First thing I've crocheted in at least 3 years. Carpal tunnel is a bitch. My brother wanted some beanies he could wear in summer and picked this one out. You can't really see the pattern in the brim, but you can't see all the mistakes either, so it's a wash. :)
Well that's unfortunate, I love my fingering weight yarns. The coloring on your piece is gorgeous, I thought I recognized the green from one of the Yarn Bee colorways but the blue/indigo definitely doesn't pop as much.
