The 1898 cap is finished. Using the teal yarn, 84 stitches were picked up around the top of the headband part for the crown.
The strip sequence was:
4 rows, teal
1 row, black
3 rows, teal
2 rows, black
2 rows, teal
3 rows, black
1 row, teal
Finish with black
I tried a “jogless” stripe technique and though it’s better, it’s not perfect by far.
I won at yarn chicken this time with 50 inches of teal yarn left over.

It looks great! And like it was planned ahead instead of a “how can I use up my yarn?” project. Awesome.
