Cloche with Rolled Brim - Update

I was able to start working on the cloche at my younger son's soccer practice. Unfortunately, I am easily distracted by everything going on around me, so I kept losing my place. This isn't a difficult pattern but the counting kept tripping me up. Once we got home, and I had a little quiet time, I cruised along.

I do most of my knitting on circular needles. I find them so much more comfortable and easier to use than straight needles, mostly because I can sit in any chair and not bang my needles on the arm rests. And, because the needles are attached to each other, I don't ever have to worry about losing one needle.

The above pic shows the hat shortly after I started it. There are 8 stitches between yarn-overs. More pictures will be posted as I finish the hat.
