I actually rather like the Lamont one. I am not a fan of white, but something about it really got to me as it slowly took shape in my hands. My first attempt at it involved two bands of white and a band of colour, but about six rows out and I realised it was too white for the tartan. I then tried it reversed. Two rows of colour, and a row of white. And realised that I would run out of colour before the hat was done. So... I just kept doing a row of each. I wasn't sure if it would turn out right that way, but after getting about half the crown done, I realised that it was balanced. Especially once I gathered up a wad of colour and pretended to stick it up top as a pom pom.
Trust me folks, the tops of the hats also look amazing... Especially on the Scott Hunting Brown!
