I haven't worn this hat yet, but I tried it on when I got it and it looks really cute and is warm and cozy.  My husband thinks the "band" above the brim looked a little weird, but I fussed with it a bit and it's fine for me.  The hat had a few stray yarns that I needed to tuck in, but nothing major.  It's really cute and I can't wait to wear it soon.  I'd consider purchasing this one in another color, too (I got black).
