I finally finished it! Three movies and many episodes of Arrested Development later, I've got the cutest hat in the world. I wore it to lab today although it was 55 degrees and I had to peel off sweater and scarf along the way (East Coast weather has been INSANE recently). By the time I made it in I was sweaty, but still proud of hat. With this project, I learned how to make an I-cord (Stitch 'N Bitch instructions were not at all clear, I had to resort to this helpful video to figure it out:
Knitting Help) and pom-poms. It was a really fun project. Since my fourth size 7 needle was in the process of being mailed to me by nice Jess, I decided to go with the size 6 for this project instead. I still can't quite decide if it is a tad small or not. I'd go with the size 7 next time...
