[Nfb-krafters-korner] mental block--and a weird one

[Laura White]

Hi Lovette,
Just knit the hat in the rount,  as for the trim, if you knit it on
just start with the trim first and then change colors.  If you don't
know how to do that, email me at lewhite86 at gmail.com and I'll be happy
to explain.
