Kayla's hat...Basic hat #3

Ok Ok bare with me here I know you probably tired of me posting about these hats.But I just love knitting hats they are a quick fix to twitchy fingers. This hat though is a bit different than the others firstly it has an intended owner Kayla and secondly I used the Magic Loop technique to do this one I feel quite pleased with myself for trying something new I don't think I will use dpns again at least not if I can help it. Today Magic Loop tomorrow intarsia/stranding.
