Two-Piece Knotwork Hat -- Ripping

By round 20 of the hat body, I'd made four mistakes. The biggest was that I'd cabled one of the twists left then right, but I'd also lost a stitch, realised that I wanted to alter the pattern at round 5, and didn't like how the knitted join between brim and body looked.

Solution: Rip 20, start over. I am, however, liking the feel of the second attempt more than the first, but this brings the false-start tally on this project to:

  • 5 attempts at knitting a nice cable pattern for the brim.
  • 2 test knits for the body pattern.
  • 1 nearly-complete body ripped out.
