Unfortunately, I hated it.
The color, which had seemed so beautiful when it was yarn, seemed way too bright on my head. The rolled edge looked kinda goofy on me. It looks better on a spaghetti squash. Luckily, it looks really cute on Princess Whackamole.
Which means I still needed to knit MY first hat. I bought some new, darker yarn. I saw a hat I liked over at the Yarn Harlot site, one that used cables. I decided to leap in to make my first hat with my first cables. Much different than the Yarn Harlot's, since I didn't use bulky yarn, but I love this hat. I especially like the way all the cables come together at the top. Looks great with buzzed hair, or at least better on me than it looks on a squash. That's my new standard, and here's my new hat:
