I used fallenwithstyle's chart to knit myself a Pattern hat! The brown is KnitPicks City Tweed DK and the purple is KnitPicks Wool of the Andes sport. They were both sitting in my stash of yarn waiting to be right for something. I need to work on my consistency with keeping the floats loose enough in stranded knitting, but it isn't bad enough to be a problem.The hat also came out slightly longer than I usually prefer, but I'm super happy with it anyway :-). While I was knitting it, it occurred to me that there is potential for an amazing Pattern hat done with cables rather than colorwork. I'm not sure when I will get to it, but designing that pattern has gone in my "projects I will get to at some point" file. 

Sprenhead!

Here’s my finished Pattern hat! I’m really happy with how it came out not just as fanart but as a hat in general (and I said I didn’t need any more hats…).

I changed the chart sightly from the original version I posted, so here is the final version (it doesn’t include instructions for the flared brim or picot hem though, just the colorwork).
