Cast on Christmas ~

Yes, I did say Christmas... casting on my first Christmas hat on August 1st. I'd say that is doing pretty swell long range planning....

I'm using the pattern Turn a Square and so far, so good. Here is the hat with the color work started.

Using Rowan yarn for the first time, too, with this "new to me" pattern.

Did I mention that I cast off on the same day as I cast on? :) Gotta love river knitting!!!
