What's not to enjoy about quick knitted hats? They are the perfect project (like socks) fast, you can use almost any yarn, you usually only need a skein or two, they are portable, and they are so much fun to experiment with. Like socks, you can wear a hat that is completely outlandish - you'd never wear a sweater with 6 colors and pompoms all over it, but a hat? Totally.

There's a great variety of hats, from a variety of designers who's names you'll recognize, from lace, cables, texture, fair isle, etc, color photos & charts throughout.

Most of the hats I'd rate advanced beginner, but that's what you would expect from a book called "weekend hats" - projects to knit quickly and easily.

There is the standard how to knit section that drives me crazy, but I guess it can't be helped.

I borrowed this book from my library's digital catalog.
