This is knit using size 13 straight needles, but you could use circulars. I chose Lion Brand Hometown USA in Sante Fe Tweed, any super bulky yarn would work.

I wanna see pictures, so please let me know where I can see your progress!
How do you wear this? I just completed it but I am not sure how I am supposed to secure this on my head.
ReplyDeleteI just realized I said embellish with buttons, but didn't say where. I feel silly now! You attach a button on the cast off end. Your YO in row 3 is a button hole. Sorry I forgot that part, I'll edit it in. Thanks for pointing it out!
