Vertical Striped Hat

I saw this hat in Itty-Bitty Hats by Susan B. Anderson and knew that it just had to be knitted for Michelle. I acquired some Lion Brand Micro spun, and it just screamed at me to but knitted into this hat. So after a quick trip to Micheal's, with help of course, I picked out Mango and Fuchsia to go with the acquired Lime and Turquoise. I knitted the brim and first stripe in Carson Simply Soft Black so the other colors "POPPED".

Here is what I have done so far.

The Black is seed stitch, lime is Garter Stitch, Fuchsia is Stockinette, and Mango is Twisted Stitches. Each stripe is 8 stitches wide and 9 inches long. I cast on 88 stitches. There are 6 different stithces total. The other two stitches are a Basket weave and Cable.
