Improvement

Much better than the first attempt, right? This one is a little larger than the first, I cast on 88 (still fewer than the turn-a-square pattern calls for) and it fits a large adult size head.

help me choose

Which one should I start for my next project?

Plus side of option one is that it is 4 row repeat, whereas option two is a 7 row repeat, but all wrong side rows are the same.

What do you think?
