Holy mackerel, that is just gorgeous! What a lovely marriage of yarn and pattern.

They work so well together - beautiful.

Mmmm..oh yes I can see why you couldn't resist!

Oh wow, that is gorgeous!

I love that color. Quite possibly my favorite. What a beautiful pattern as well!

And . . . added to Ravelry queue. I've been going back and forth about making this hat, and your version has pushed me over the edge. Beautiful job!

yum. the color of the yarn is gorgeous.

has this helped tame you leaf obsession or just encouraged it?

Oh my, so lovely...

What a gorgeous hat.

WOAH gorgeous.

Lovely! The color is perfect for more leaves.

beautiful hat! the color is absolutely perfect.

wow, that is super pretty. the stitches look dense, yet light. nice match.

absolutely fantastic. Wow.

Oh, LOVE indeed!!!

Gorgeous!! :)

Beautiful! Love the hat and the color!

You have tempted me on two fronts. I have a weakness for hats and I need a travel project.

I couldn't resist either! Made it in Opal Sock yarn in neon. I think I like yours better in the solid.
