Fair Isle First

Just tried designing my first Fair Isle project. Started with a simple floral pattern for a hat.

Fair Isle's really not as bad as I imagined. I actually like the fact that it's only two colors per row. Otherwise, I can see where things would get crazy.

Started with 84 stitches at the bottom and worked my way up with Lion Brand's Vanna's Choice Yarn on size 7 knitting needles.
