Nearly FO: Some Assembly Required


This visor beanie project is a secret gift so I should not talk about it too much. It is pictured here in its parts, ready to assemble.

I knit it in Cascade 220 Tweed and it is will be embellished with silver buttons. I am trying the addition of a band that covers up the area where the visor is joined to the hat. I saw that idea on a KnitPicks kit and in some ready-made visor beanies. I think it will give it a really nice finish.

The plan is to knit some more of these as gifts for Christmas this year. They do not take that long and I have lots of fun buttons to personalize them with. So look out young and old, this may be your funnest gift this year.

Happy passionate pursuits to all!
