Success

Well, so far so good. As you can see ( hard with black I know) in the below photo the dreaded ladder has disappeared.
Doing an actual swatch and using smaller needles and maybe even adding the extra dpn into the mix has really helped. I like the way the hat is turning out and the lack of ladders is great.
Initially adding another needle to the mix was awkward but as time went by it became easier. I found that the more rows you add the easier it is using dpn. The first row or so I always feel like I am going to stab myself with a needle pointing right at me. Now back to more knitting and hopefully this project will be completed before next week.
