it is better to give

I have completed a ribbed beanie for my brother for Christmas. It was knit from Patons Classic Wool Merino "Natural Marl" on size 8 needles. I really enjoyed this project, it was quick and easy and turned out great!

I have also cast on for my dad's fisherman watchcap. I am knitting this in Patons Classic Wool Merino "Deep Olive" on size 8 needles. I've worked 2 rows and decided that it will be too small, so I'm ripping back and increasing my cast on number to 90 and hope that will be sufficient.
