Getting an accurate color representation was tricky, too. The hat is probably somewhere in between the spectrum you'll see in these photos. Not a glaring orange, not muddy, somewhere in between.
There were a few distractions.
And a little silliness thrown in for good measure.
So much for the official documentation! This was a fun knit, so I guess a little fun to wrap it up was in order. I'd definitely knit this one again.

It's a great hat. I love the color!
I really love the halo effect this yarn gives Koolhaas. I knitted mine in a similar orange, but just a classic wool, and it's pretty strong colorwise. This yarn really softens a strong color. Awesome! :-)
Great hat!Every one I see tempts me.
And thanks for stopping by & your compliments on my mitered blanket!
I think you took some lovely photoes of your sweet daughter - the hat looks nice on her too....
I love that hat!!!! I think that it can have so many different ways of looking, depending on which yarn and colour you use....
Color me orange with envy, Leslie! What a delightful rendition of what is quickly becoming the coolest hat in the land. What yarn did you use?
Karen, I used Elsebeth Lavold angora/wool yarn (chosen by my brother) which gives a nice halo.
Really pretty hat in that luscious color! Your daughter looks lovely and fun-loving! And you must have an amazing camera in addition to being a stellar photographer because I am just hyperventelating over your photos. They are so darn good.
