Hey everyone! I've finished my Fake Isle Hat with my Noro Kureyon that I purchased yesterday at the LYS. It's my first hat, and my first Fair Isle. I love this pattern so much, I'll definitely be making many more of these! Let me know what you think! :D
Here's the hat:

Great hat!! No one would ever guess this was your first hat and your first Fair Isle. The effect is very artsy, perfect for a musician. :happydancing:

You look so happy and cute in your hat. I love it! :cheering:
I bought the yarn to make this hat a long time ago. It's still waiting. Wouldn't fit over my hair anyway. :pout:

Everyones is going to look great.
And you make this sound so easy, but for someone who has never done two color knitting, can someone show a pic of the inside of the hat, how the carried yarn looks inbetween it's use.
Thanks

Amy has videos in the Advanced Techniques section here: http://knittinghelp.com/knitting/advanced_techniques/ on two color knitting. She has both Intarsia and Stranded Knitting vids (Fair Isle is a type of stranded) and in the video, she shows you the back of a piece of stranded knitting. :)
