Well, as you can see, it's a two-sided hat that's supposed to be extra warm!
It was kind of like knitting a giant sausage! It's not a difficult pattern, however, I am not sure how to block it. Any suggestions? As for warmth, I will let you know after the recipient wears it, and that won't be for some time because she's off enjoying the sunshine at the moment.

I’m knitting this hat as well (my fourth) - great mindless knitting. I didn’t block any of the hats.
It looks great! I'm still slogging away on my second try. My first one was huge. This one looks about right but it feels like it will never be done.
That's a great looking hat. I don't think most people block hats but some I've seen have those styrofoam head forms from the craft store or even on a coffee can or bowl!

so cool that it is reversible! great work!!
I block this kind of hat by throwing it in the washer and dryer! lol
It is very pretty--
I want to knit that someday! It looks like such a comforting pattern to knit up. Yours is wonderful!
Perhaps block it on a balloon?
Either way, it looks great!
I've never blocked a hat, so no help there. I like that's it doubled for warmth and reversable...very nice.
That really is a cool pattern, and I like the colors you chose. Very pretty. I've never blocked a hat either, but I thought the styrofoam head form someone mentioned was a pretty good idea.
Oh wow! I love that! I am totally going to give that a go. I wonder if that work work for a hat that has a lace overlay... I must experiment!
