I've been offline for a while. Thought I'd post this hat I did recently. I did the body of the hat in moss stitch which made a nice texture.

Another great job, Mason.

Another great job, Mason. It's been interesting watching you go from the basic scarf into exploring techniques and stitches. I hope you';ve been taking notes...your fan club over at knittinghelp.com is correct - you could get an interesting book out of this "journey" .

I love the moss stitch, the texture is really appealing especially in that cerulean blue. The hat has a Swedish feel- those are the Swedish national colors.
