I also use leftover of yarn which is always a good news and I had fun too. Bonus point, it fits me well too even if it's not for me...
Pattern : Capitan hat by Rosi Garmendia
Needle : 6mm
Yarn : Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Bulky in wine color, about 1 skein (137 yards)
Cast on and cast off : June 28Th
Mods : Umm it wasn't enough long after 3 repeats of the cable repeat as stated in the pattern, so I added one more repeat before the decrease. I also improvised a bit in the decrease as I don't really like to follow pattern for that, I know what to do anyway to make a cute decrease.
First hat with a brim, I must have to admit that I like it and it makes me smile. Did you see the perfect buttons I had in stock for this hat ?

6276 yards knitted so far in 2010 and this one is my 17th FO of 2010 !! not bad...

Your hat looks great! I've had this one in my queue for awhile, I should really sit down and make it; I've got the yarn and everything!
Love it! Great colors too, and wonderful that you were able to use some of your stash! :)
It was worth the wait for the photos! I didn't know I was so late in my blog reading. You have so many new FOs... Very nice cap! Great color!
