Coriander hat

My friend Gerry (gerryart.blogspot.com -- look her up, you'll get inspired!) sported me to the pattern for a knitalong, the Coriander Hat.  The design is by Carol Feller (littlefellers on Ravelry) and it was a ton of fun.  I knit it in alpaca because I love how alpaca feels.  The stitch definition might not be what it could be in a less fuzzy fiber, but it is so soft and warm, I couldn't resist.  The design was really intuitive once I plodded along deliberately through the first set of patterns after the setup.  By the time I got done, it was pretty natural and knitted up fast.  It only took me 2 or 3 evenings between my other hats, my thrummed slippers, and my Wedding Shawl lace project.
