Tychus, sort of.

A Christmas hat!

Pattern: Knitty's Tychus, sort of. It's shorter, so no fold-up, smaller sections, and only four of them so that it isn't for giants only. And I did wrap the stitches at the ends of the short rows. The holes were a little big. This was a really fast hat once I finished knitting and ripping out half a hat made according to the original pattern.
Yarn: Black Paton's wool, heathery foresty green Lion Brand Wool-Ease. Both are doubled up. The hat is wonderfully squishy because of the doubledness and the garter stitch.
Needles: size 9 Denises. It's short rows and then seamed, so "straight" ones. Denises are too floppy to be straight.

Action shot:

Me, holding camera: Hey, put this on.
Lump On Couch: mmrph.
Me: Beautiful.
