I love working with Koigu yarn, and this hat looked like a really fun project. I have a lot of left over Koigu, so my first "hat" was a patchwork of the leftovers. It really worked. The Pattern itself is easy to follow and works up rapidly. The only thing I had trouble with was when I switched to double-points during the decrease. Next time I will use bamboo needles rather than steel point, as the steel point needles had a tendency to slip out of the yarn.
